Subject | st: Block Recursive Equation |
Date | Mon, 14 Nov 2011 14:03:01 -0600 |
I am new to stata and I'm struggling with a fairly remedial task. I am trying to estimate a block-recursive equation system of the following specification. Y1 = Intercept + a2Y2 + a4Z1 + a5Z2 Y2 = Intercept + B1Y1 + B4Z1 + B5Z2 Y3 = Intercept + C1Y1 + C2Y2 + C4Z1 + C5Z2 Y1 and Y2 are solved simultaneously and the results are used in the third equation. I was hoping to attain a code for this basic set of equations just to get an idea of how stata handles this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
