Yes, I probably got confused b/c this thread has meandered from "RE vs.
FE"
to "A vs. B" and back again. The strategy you are recommending is only
applicable if Francesco wants to stick to FE, right? For RE, there is no
convenient representation with dummies, is there?

Subject: Re: st: testing across different sub-samples
Hi Martin:
I thought that he could estimate this with dummy fixed effects
using -reg-
So, he simply does:
reg y x1 x2 x3 x4 x5 i.id if group ==0
est store zero
reg y x1 x2 x3 x4 x5 i.id if group ==1
est store one
suest zero one
test [zero_mean = one_mean]
Suest should be able to handle the "i.id" fixed effects, no?
Best,
J.

Can you give an example? -suest- is not available after -xt- commands...

Hi Francesco:
What you need to do is a Chow test--i.e., test whether the set of
coefficients differ across samples.
There is a quick way to do this using -suest-
Model the fixed effects with dummies, if you have any.
HTH,
John.

Dear Martin,
thank you again for your answer. I thought about using a Hausman test,
but I couldn't figure out how to actually implement it in stata for my
case. Please find below a more detailed description of my problem:
I am estimating the following model
xtreg y b1x1 b2x2 b2x3 b4x4 b5x5 (fe or re)
on two different sub-samples (A and B), which can be individuated by a
dummy D. In both cases, I compute an index given by the sum of the
first three coefficients (b1+b2+b3). Then I need to assess whether the
two indexes from the two sub-samples are statistically different. In
other words, I need to test whether (b1+b2+b3) in A = ( b1+b2+b3) in
B.
Best regards
Francesco
