Hello, Resending the same message is not a guarantee to ensure some response. It is the way you ask the question to increase the chance of responses. Read on this in the list's FAQ. Anyway you can look at the different alternative Count Data models implemented in a variety of Stata commands like: -xtgee- with options for count data types. -gnpoisson- for Generalized Poisson Regression There is some useful commentary on such models in Hilbe, J. 2011, Negative Binomial Regression, 2nd Edition, Cambridge University Publications I hope this helps somehow, Best Anees On Wed, Sep 12, 2012 at 11:49 PM, Mário Marques <mmarques@eeg.uminho.pt> wrote: > Dear All, > > I resend my message.
