Re: st: Regression Equation in ZINB regression

[rachel grant <rachelannegrant@gmail.com>]

Thank you Partho. Thank you all for your patience.
I have now understood that I cannot get Stata to do this and I need to
reconstruct by inserting my co-efficients into the equation. Fine

Now the problem I have is finding a general equation for ZINB in order
to reconstruct.
Is the general equation for ZINB the same as Poisson? I cannot find
anywhere a general equation for ZINB.
I could use a general log-linear Poisson type equation but would this
be correct? and how do I deal with the inflated part, is this merely a
seperate log-linear eqn, or is it incorporated into th general ZINB
eqn. Thanks, Rachel
