Betreff: st: Creating a variable taking the value of elasticity
Dear Statalist,
I have a simple dataset containing two variables, x and y. I regress
ln(y) on ln(x) and observe the coefficient on x as elasticity. I then
want to create a variable taking the value of this coefficient. How
would I do this? Something like local elas=e(b); gen elas=`elas',
except e(b) contains all the coefficients, and I just want one.
A related question: when I regress y on x and then input "mfx, eyex,"
the ey/ex value is not the same as the coefficient I obtain using
regress ln(y) ln(x). Why? Also: how would I extract the ey/ex value
from the mfx output in order to create a variable taking that value?
Thank you,
Dorothy
