Sorry if I use the wrong word becaue I am not a native english speaker
but I do not how to explain. My question looks silly for somebody but
I have no strong background about using stata, I just start to use
Tobit model, so I have no idea about it. Maybe, I might have too many
variables. Thank you for Tony.
Sorry Nick, if you use inappropriate word to you.
