Title

[P] _coef_table -- Displaying estimation results

Syntax

_coef_table [, level(#) first neq(#) plus separator(#) notest coeftitle(title) offsetonly1 nocnsreport bmatrix(matname) vmatrix(matname) dfmatrix(matname) eform_option diparm_options ]

diparm_options is one or more diparm(diparm_args) options, where diparm_args is either __sep__ or anything accepted by the _diparm command; see [P] _diparm.

Description

_coef_table is an enhanced version of ereturn display; see [P] ereturn

Options

level(#) supplies the significance level for the confidence intervals of the coefficients; see [R] level.

first requests that Stata display only the first equation and make it appear as if only one equation was estimated.

neq(#) requests that Stata display only the first # equations and make it appear as if only # equations were estimated.

plus places a + symbol at the position of the dividing line between variable names and results on the bottom separation line produced by estimates display. This is useful if you plan on adding more output to the table.

separator(#) places a horizontal separator line between every # auxiliary parameters.

notest suppresses the test statistic and p-value for ancillary parameters.

coeftitle(title) specifies the title for the coefficient column of the table. This option is ignored if eform() is specified.

offsetonly1 requests that _coef_table only report the offset for the first equation.

nocnsreport suppresses the display of constraints above the coefficient table. This option is ignored if constraints were not used to fit the model.

bmatrix(matname) specifies that the coefficients are in matname instead of in e(b).

vmatrix(matname) specifies that the VCE matrix is matname instead of e(V). This option requires the bmatrix() option.

dfmatrix(matname) specifies that the multiple-imputation degrees-of-freedom values are in matname instead of in e(mi_df). This option requires the vmatrix() option.

eform_option is identified in eform_option. Also see Exponentiated form below.

diparm_options is one or more diparm(diparm_args) options, where diparm_args is either __sep__ or anything accepted by the _diparm command; see [P] _diparm.

Although diparm_options are allowed, we recommend that you identify the number of ancillary parameters by setting e(k_aux); see Ancillary parameters.

Remarks

Remarks are presented under the following headings:

Automatic behavior Ancillary parameters Exponentiated form

Automatic behavior

_coef_table uses the following scalars and macros from e():

scalar description --------------------------------------------------------------------- e(k_eq) number of equations in e(b) e(k_aux) number of ancillary parameters in e(b) e(k_extra) number of extra statistics stored in e(b) e(k_eform) number of equations allowed to be affected by an eform_option; by default, only the first equation is affected ---------------------------------------------------------------------

macro description --------------------------------------------------------------------- e(diparm#) arguments to be supplied to _diparm e(diparm_opt#) extra options to be added to the call to _diparm for the ancillary parameter stored in equation #, typically noprob ---------------------------------------------------------------------

Ancillary parameters

Although diparm_options are allowed, we recommend that you identify the number of ancillary parameters by setting e(k_aux); for example,

ereturn scalar k_aux = 2

identifies that there are two ancillary parameters. If you want to display a transform of one or more ancillary parameters, identify them by setting e(diparm#); for example,

ereturn local diparm1 lnsigma, exp label("sigma")

specifies the arguments to _diparm, just like diparm_options.

Exponentiated form

_coef_table will display the coefficient table in exponentiated form when supplied with an eform_option; see [R] eform_option.

Although the eform and eform(string) options are always allowed, the properties of the commands identified in e(cmd) and e(cmd2) will determine which other eform_option is allowed (where the property matches the option). Thus, in order for the or option to be allowed, e(cmd) must have the "or" property; see [P] program for information about setting the properties of programs.

e(k_eform) determines which equations are affected by an eform_option; by default, only the first equation is affected.
