Hello All

Thanks to Kit Baum, there is now a new version of the -parmest- package available for distribution on SSC. In Stata, type

ssc desc parmest

to find out more.

The -parmest- package is described as below on my website, and creates an output dataset (or resultsset) with 1 observation per model parameter. The new version has 2 new options, -erows()- and -ecols()-, which specify lists of matrix estimation results whose rows or columns are to be added to the resultsset as additional variables. For instance, if the user specifies -ecols(V)-, then the columns of the variance-covariance matrix are stored in the resultsset in variables named ec_1_1, ec_1_2, ..., ec_1_n, where n is the number of parameters.

I would like to thank Buzz Burhans for suggesting that something like this would be a good idea.

Best wishes

Roger

TITLE
parmest: Convert estimation results to a data set with 1 obs per parameter

DESCRIPTION/AUTHOR(S)
parmest creates an output data set, with 1 observation per parameter of the
most recent estimation results, and variables corresponding to parameter names,
estimates, standard errors, z- or t-test statistics, P-values, confidence
limits and other parameter attributes. parmby is a quasi-byable extension to
parmest, which calls an estimation command, and creates a new data set, with 1
observation per parameter if the by() option is unspecified, or 1 observation
per parameter per by-group if the by() option is specified. The output data
set may be listed to the Stata log and/or saved to a file and/or retained in
memory (overwriting any pre-existing data set).
