Antonio,

Quoting Antonio Rodrigues Andres <[email protected]>:

I think what you posted demonstrates that my guess was correct.

Consider observations 6 and 7 for country 1.  The way you've calculated 
lsrt_1, the 1-period lagged value in 1981 is the immediately preceding 
observation, which is from 1979:

     | country   year       lsrt     lsrt_1     lsrt_2       dlsrt |
     |-------------------------------------------------------------|
  6. |       1   1979   2.452249   2.414159   2.378957    .0380907 |
  7. |       1   1981   2.415434   2.452249   2.414159   -.0368152 |

But if you use Stata's lag operators, then the 1-period lagged value in 
1981 is missing:

     +--------------------------------------+
     | country   year     lsrt_l    lsrt_ll |
     |--------------------------------------|
  6. |       1   1979   2.414159          . |
  7. |       1   1981          .   2.452249 |

The latter is correct.  The 1-period lagged value for 1981 would be from 
1980, and in fact there is no 1980 observation.  The 2-period lagged value 
should be from 1979, and it is.

If you use Stata's lag operators when you create your data, then you will 
be using the same transformed data that xtivreg is using.

Best,
Mark
