Subject: st: binary endogenous variable with panel data
Date: Wed, 23 Nov 2005 10:09:34 -0500
I believe the answer is no. The newey method only works with
continuously distributed endogenous variables.
In general, estimating non-linear panel data models with endogeneity
requires GMM estimation. The idea is to treat the derivative of the
log likelihood function as implicitly defining a moment condition.
Unfortunately, Stata does not have a GMM routine at this point. It's
really one of the only critical gaps in what is otherwise a wonderful
package. I have a similar problem with count panel data models, and I
am going to have to do all these analyses in TSP.
Unfortunately, TSP does not handle weights, and TSP commands do not
have an easy to use cluster() option either.
