If you note that 3SLS is the GMM estimator under system
homskedasticity, then tranferring calculations to -gmm- produces a
J-statistic directly. This example is taken from the Stata manual
([R]) entry on -gmm-:
/*************************************/
webuse klein, clear
// 3SLS via -reg3-
reg3 (consump = wagepriv wagegovt) ///
(wagepriv = consump govt capital1), ///
endog(consump wagepriv) exog(wagegovt govt capital1)
// 3SLS via -gmm-
gmm (eq1: consump - {b0} - {xb: wagepriv wagegovt}) ///
(eq2: wagepriv - {c0} - {xc: consump govt capital1}), ///
instruments(wagegovt govt capital1) ///
winitial(unadjusted, independent) ///
wmatrix(unadjusted) twostep
// J-statistic
estat overid
/*************************************/
This way, your estimation can also easily be made robust to
heteroskedasticity. See several old Statalist posts by Christopher
Baum on -reg3-/-sureg- and 3SLS estimation to get an idea of its
limitations.
