Thank you very much for your answer. I tried that already but could not manage since -rvpplot- and -rvfplot- do not work with -xtreg-.
To do this, i suppose i have to use the -graph twoway- command together with residuals and predicted values.
I got the fitted by:
. predict conshat
(option xb assumed; fitted values)
but how can i get the residuals?
. predict consres, residuals
option residuals not allowed
r(198);
Thank you!
