Dear Mareike

You can check a simple loss error function for each specification (the
lowest the number, the better). See an example:

reg lxi lGDP_i lGDP_j contig comla smctry ldist i.ichlnum i.jchlnum i.t, robust
predict plxi

* Bias:
gen losspfiw = plxipfiw - lxi

* Absolute error loss:
gen abslosspfiw  = abs(losspfiw)

You can also check the mean square error and the bias (again, the
lowest the better):

* Mean Square Error (MSE)
gen losspfiw2 = losspfiw^2

I hope this helps

Regards
Estrella
