st: Determining residuals following adjustment in a regression model

[Daniel Herbert Opi <opi.herbert@gmail.com>]

Hi All,

I am carrying out a regression model and I am interested in
determining the residuals for each single observation. The model is
adjusted for at least one variable. But I realise the residuals
generated in the adjusted model are identical to those in those in the
unadjusted model.

Is there a way of determining residuals that take into account the
adjustment in the model.

Example of the commands in I've used in stata:

The adjusted model
xi:regress continous_variable i.variable2 i.variable3

The unadjusted model
xi:regress continous_variable i.variable2

The prediction command I've used:
predict resid_sample, resid

I would appreciate any help with this.
Herbert
