You may want to double the "a", not the "e"...

Betreff: Re: st: bootstrap _b VS bootstrap _se

Thanks Marteen again. But what if the coefficients which I found them
significant ( with high t-values) in SUREG are not more significant in
bootstrap _b, reps(1000). Isnt it this means the orginal findings dont
replicate?? I am asking this because I am estimating costs and I find
negative values (negative costs- strange)  which are significant in
SUREG and are not significant at all in bootstrap _b, reps(1000).
Sorry for taking your time. Thanks again.
