Subject: st: income classes as dependent variable

Dear Stata users,
 
 
My data set contains data on income and a number of characteristics (age,
education etc.). I want to explain individual income by the characteristics.
Income is not known exactly, it is only known to which income class an
individual belongs to. I have reasons to believe that income is not normaly
distributed. Can I simply use an ordered logit/probit model or should I use
another type of model. and if so, do there exist stata modules to estimate
such model.
 
 
regards,
 
Marcel Spijkerman
