Re: st: tobit model in a percentage range

Dear all,
I see that betafit allows to display relative proportion ratios, reading help file I do not understand if they are the same as odd ratios?
How can I compare relative proportion ratios to odd ratios? (I am using -logit depvar vars ,or- with other dep vars with similar meaning and I would like to compare)
Thanks a lot Maarten and Tirthankar for your interesting and helpful suggestions,
Roger

A fractional logit model can be estimated in Stata using -glm-
together with the -link(logit) vce(robust)- option, see Baum (2008).
Other alternatives are -betafit-, -zoib-, -dirifit- and -fmlogit-, all
available from SSC. I compared all these different models in this talk
at the 2010 German Stata Users' meeting:
<http://ideas.repec.org/p/boc/dsug10/04.html>.
Hope this helps,
Maarten
Ps. All these models model proportions rather than percentages, so you
need to divide your dependent variable by 100.
