Thanks to Kit Baum an update of the -seqlogit- package is now
available from SSC. The -seqlogit- package can be used to study
a sequence of discrete events, for example some respondents
finish high school and others not, and those who finished high
school can either finish college or not. The -seqlogit- package
allows one to additionally study the interelationship between
effects of covariates on the individual transitions and the
effects of these covariates on the final outcome (in this case
highest achieved level of education). Moreover, it contains
tools for doing a sensitivity analysis regarding the potential
influence of unobserved heterogeneity. A describtion can be
found here: <http://www.maartenbuis.nl/software/seqlogit.html>.
This update contains a fix for a bug that was introduced in Stata
11, which made -uhdesc-, one of the tools for doing a sensitivity
analysis, fail to work.
This package can be updated by typing in Stata -ssc instal seqlogit, replace-.
