Lenka Vavroušková had trouble posting the follwing question on statalist:

> Dear statalisters,
> 
> I have question in relation to interpretation of Heckman
> two-step estimation results. As was already mentioned in the
> previous threads the coefficients in the outcome equation
> can be interpreted itself, it is needed to get marginal
> effects.
> 
> How can I estimate marginal effects after Heckman model
> based on the Hoffmann and  Kassouf (2005) article -
> Appendix A. They state that the unconditional marginal 
> effects computed in STATA corresponds to expressions (A.9),
> (A.10), which are exactly the values I would like to
> obtain.
> 
> Will the command: mfx, predict (yexpected) do it for me?
> 
> I will be extremely grateful for any help.
