George <gjosephresearch@gmail.com> : Your link appears to be broken but if you mean to cite http://www.stata.com/statalist/archive/2010-02/msg00045.html then the paragraph of text tbat precedes the code explains the goal. Maybe you need to read the entry on -margins- in the manuals? Or the older sources: http://www.stata-journal.com/sjpdf.html?articlenum=st0086 http://www.u.arizona.edu/~gelbach/ado/margfx.pdf On Mon, Jan 31, 2011 at 11:09 AM, george joseph <gjosephresearch@gmail.com> wrote: > after biprobit. > > I have the following code > > biprobit (y1 = y2 xvars) (y2 z xvariables ), robust > > After mfx, compute, I try to calculate the conditional probability > of- y1=1 conditional on y2=1 and then y1=1 conditional on y2=0.
