Dear Statalisters,


I estimated the following Model in Stata:

xtmixed cr5 firmsize firmrisk firmrisk_sqr firmperformance regulation
shareholderprotection || country: || industry: , variance

yielding the followng results stated at the end of this Mail.


Could you give me any advice how the LR test? ( LR test vs. linear
regression:       chi2(2) =    56.66   Prob > chi2 = 0.0000) or where
to find information on this?

Best regards
Christian
