Dear All;
I am using moter's years of schooling and father's years of schooling as
explanatory variables in my regression model. I also creata a dummy
indicators for whether mother's and father's years of schooling are missing,
respectively:
gen misdaded=dadedec==.
gen mismoted=moteduc==.
When I run the following regression:
reg childedyrs dadeduc moteduc misdaded mismoted,
Stata drops two dummy indicators for whether parents' schooling is missing.
Do you have any suggestion on how I can properly control for whether
mother's and father's years of schooling are missing in my regression model.
Thank you very much for kind help.
Simo
