st: Fitstat Command usage

["Polloni Stefano" <stefano.polloni@umontreal.ca>]

Dear statalisters,

can the fitstat command be used to compare the goodness of fit of 2 models with de same independent variables but slightly different dependant variables?

Example:

if y1: =1 if A and B
       =2 if A or B
       =3 if neither A nor B

and y2: =1 if A and B
        =2 if A not B
        =3 if B not A
        =4 if neither A nor B


how could I show that using y1 , for example, gives better explanation than y2

thanks 

SP
