RE: st: loglikelihood and loglikelihood ratio
1. First, My euqation system is one translog cost function (lnc), with
4 cost share equatios(sl sk sm se). To use -sureg-, I just need to
estimate the translog cost function with 3 cost share equations
(choose any 3 of the 4)
My total dataset contains 7 regions. The estimation results for the 7
regions are fine. All R square are positive, all LR chi() are
positive, and all degree of freedom are right.
2. I choose the last 4 regions of the total 7regions and create a new
data set(changed the dummy variables).
Here, all the R square are positive, all LR chi() are positive. But
the degree of freedom are strange.

I am thinking if the degree of freedom changed from 3 to 2 because of
_cons in unrestricted model is dropped, but kept in restricted model?
3. I chose the first 3 regions and created them as a new dataset
(changed the dummy variables). When I estimated equations lnc, sl, sm,
se, there are two negative R square values. So I changed them to ln,
sl, sk, se and got one negative R-sq this time. LR chi() here are
negative.

Quoting "Lachenbruch, Peter" <[email protected]>:
I haven't been following this in detail, but one issue that might
simplify matters would be for Jingjing to copy the commands from the
results window and the error messages received. Only copy the relevant
parts of the output - I don't want to see 15 pages of garbage. Maarten
has been very noble in this.

Subject: Re: st: loglikelihood and loglikelihood ratio
1. I just checked the commands for the 3 regions case and found they
are right. But in the estimation of the unrestricted model, R square
of one of the three equations are negative, R square of the other
three euqations are positive. Does it cause the negative LR chi2 value?
2. In my 7 regions case, LR chi are positive. However, there's some
strange thing about the degree of freedom. In unrestricted case, the
parameters for equation 1, 2, 3 are 40, 8, 8, respectively. In
restricted case, are 37, 7, 7. I though the degree of freedom should
be 40-37=3. But the result of lrtest given by stata is LR chi(2).
What's the problem?
Thanks.

You definately should not use the -force- option. I was expecting
that you were not telling us everything you did.

I am quite sure it's the same 3 regions. Because I just
input the 3
regions dataest. I will try to use-force-, then run it
again.
Thank you.
