A paired ttest is equivalent to a repeated measures ANOVA with two levels to the repeated factor. You can see the regression equivalent below.

webuse fuel, clear
list, clean
ttest mpg1 == mpg2
local t = r(t)
generate subject = _n
list, clean
reshape long mpg, i(subject) j(repeat)
list, clean
anova mpg repeat subject
anova, regress
test repeat
local F = r(F)
display `F' "=" `t'^2
xi: regress mpg i.repeat i.subject

Dear Statalisters:
I am not sure whether it makes sense or not, but is there a sort of - regress- command that allows to conduct a pair-matched -ttest-, but with other independent variables?
I tried using -xtmixed-, but the result is not the same.
A contrived data set could be:
matching_identification  outcome ocasion variable_not_matched
                      1            1                1                0
                      1            2                2                0
                      2            3                1                0
                      2            5                2                1
                      3            2                1                0
                      3            4                2                1
                      4            6                1                1
                      4            5                2                1
To perform the pair-matched ttest it is necessary to -reshape- and to use -ttest outcome1==outcome2-, losing the independent variable_not_matched.
Thank for any orientation.
Regards,
José Maria
