Thanks a lot Ben.


Quoting Ben Jann <[email protected]>:

Okay, things are different if you use -oaxaca-, since other than
-decompose- it does not report the selection effect. You should be
able to obtain it by running -oaxaca- twice and comparing the results.
Type

oaxaca male female
local raw = r(diff)
oaxaca male female, adjust(lambda1)
di "Difference due to selection = " `raw' - r(diff)

If you don't want to see the first output change the first line to

quietly oaxaca male female
