Dear Listers,
I'm running clogit; I couldn't find any available command to compute
"average marginal effect" after clogit (I checked mfx, mfx2, margeff).
Then I replaced clogit with DV logit (including dummy variables).
Thus, I could run margeff.
When one types -findit margeff in Stata, at least two different
versions are found:
1- st0086 from http://www.stata-journal.com/software/sj5-3: Stata Journal
After installation, this version produces results with comparable
Z-values and significance as the -logit
2- margeff from http://web.uni-corvinus.hu/bartus/stata: Bartus site
After installation, this version produces results comparable to the
previous installation (in terms of coefficients) but different
(usually improved) Z-values and thus significances. This time the
output is such that some of the variables which yielded insignificant
results when running -logit, gain significance.
There questions:
1- Is anyone aware of a post-estimation command to compute "average
marginal effect" after clogit (with predict (pu0), i.e. d
pr(y=1)/dx))?
2- If not, which of the above two installations is the most accurate
and reliable one to report?
3- In general, is it theoretically possible to obtain an insignificant
odds ratio but a significant marginal effect for a (dummy) explanatory
variable?
Thank you so much for your kind support.
Bests,
Fardad
