programmings."


It is hard to say w/o significant investment of time and sweat, but I would
imagine it to be rather difficult to get them to behave the way you want
them to.

Martin,
thank you very much for your quick reply and help.
I knew Baum's high quality book previously and I am learning programming
now.
However, it is difficult for a novice to correct the programming error.
And I even do not know whether it is difficult or not  to correct the two
programmings. 
If difficult, I feel embarrassed to trouble you.
If not, could you point out the concrete errors and corrections to me?

thank you for any help.



Best regards,

Rose.

Both -program-s try to obtain the F-statistic, for instance, from the last
-internal- call to -probit- or -logit-, respectively, even though neither
command saves them, so they become blanks in the final output... A -version-
statement does not seem to be in place, either, which probably causes
problems for users.

If you are serious about programming, I highly recommend Baum (2009),

Betreff: st: programming help---adjust standard error with -cluster- option
by two dimensions

I posted "how to adjust standard error with -cluster- option by two
dimensions" about two months ago.

And I got some help and valuable websites, one of which is 
http://www.kellogg.northwestern.edu/faculty/petersen/htm/papers/se/se_progra
mming.htm.

In this website, professor Petersen gives logit2 and probit2 programmes for
adjusting standard error with -cluster- option by two dimensions for logit
model and probit model. Using the data test_data in the website, I can run
the following commands and the results are 

. u test_data,clear

. su y

Variable | Obs Mean Std. Dev. Min Max
-------------+--------------------------------------------------------
y | 5000 .0352381 2.252704 -7.843253 8.63729

. g y2=(y> r(mean))

. logit2 y2 x, fcluster( firmid) tcluster( year)

Logit with 2D clustered SEs
Number of obs =
5000
Number of clusters (firmid) = 500 Wald chi2( 1) =
567.60
Number of clusters (year) = 10 Prob > chi2 =
0.0000
Log pseudolikelihood = -3.128e+03 Pseudo R2 =

I am confused by the equation statistic, which is Wald chi2 for logit2 but
missing F vaule for probit2. And then I type -eret li- , no matter logit2
or probit2, the related equation staistics are missing.

I have emailed professor Petersen before and he told me he was not a good
programmer though he sincerely wanted to help me. 


Could anyone help me correct the programme if you know how to do it? 


Best regards,

Rose.
