Subject   st: Ologit: 1 Observation completely determined
Date   Mon, 12 Apr 2004 14:55:49 -0400

I am running Ordered Logit. The dataset has 63 observations and 15
indepedent variables (both continuous and discrete).  The dependent
variable can have upto 11 different categories. The regression output
gives me all the coefficients and standard errors. However, at the bottom
it also has the message: "1 observation completely determined. Standard
errors questionable." I am wondering what the problem is and what do I do
about it.
The stata output is given below:

Iteration 0:   log likelihood = -92.641813
Iteration 1:   log likelihood = -66.736876
Iteration 2:   log likelihood = -64.209856
Iteration 3:   log likelihood = -63.453725
Iteration 4:   log likelihood = -63.443017
Iteration 5:   log likelihood = -63.443005

Ordered logit estimates                           Number of obs   =
 63
                                                	  LR chi2(16)     =
58.40
                                                  	Prob > chi2     =
0.0000
Log likelihood = -63.443005                       Pseudo R2       =
0.3152

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
