RE: st: iccvar

[megan rossi <megan_rossi@msn.com>]

Thanks, however I am after the correlation coefficient from panel data, not the ICC.In other words I am looking for a command to use following xtmixed that will give me the the correlation coefficient for my dependent and independent variable. Any ideas?
Cheers,
