Re: st: how to test equality of coefficients - ivreg e suest?

[Manuela Deidda <manuelad.deidda@gmail.com>]

Dear John,
thank you for your quick  reply.
However, I have some doubts regarding this solution.
 Indeed, the gmm solution in the thread works when, given the
dependent variable Y and the indicator variable I (determining whether
Y belongs to group 1 or to group 2):

Y=Y1 if I=1 and 0 otherwise
Y=Y2 if I=0 and 0 otherwise

My situation is more like this:
Y=Y1 if I=1 and missing otherwise
Y=Y2 if I=0 and missing otherwise

In the first case, one estimates coefficients through the whole sample
(simply, you have that the variable is truncated at zero).
In the second case, you want only to estimate coefficients in the
subsample where you estimate the variable.

Ex. if n=1000
I=1 if _n=1/250
I=0 if _n=251/1000

I simply need to estimate Y1 when I have 250 observations and Y2 when
I have the other 750 obs...

How can I deal with this?

Best,
M.
