Dear Richard
Thank you for taking the time to respond to the question I posted.
I made the example simpler in my post for more clarity.
In the first step I ran the pwcorr, sig to capture the list of
variables that I ran in the loop.
In fact the simple linear regression does include three other
variables that may act as either modifier or confounder. So I need to
control for them.
So this brings me back to the original question. Is there any way to
get a table of coeffs that are statistically significant at the 95%
level?
Is this equivalent to saying that you only want the printout when
`var' is statistically significant? If so, I think you could modify
the following code:
sysuse auto
quietly reg price mpg trunk weight
if abs( _b[mpg] / _se[mpg]) >=1.96 reg
In other words, assuming the sample is fairly large, check to see if
the t value for the var being tested is sufficiently large. If it is,
display the results, otherwise do not.
