RE: st: areg with no constant?

Hi Nate,
time demean the data by hand and estimate using OLS (without a constant). This gives you the FE-estimates as well.
Example for a bivariate model with vary and varx1:
sort studentid
by studentid: egen mvary = mean(vary)by studentid: egen mvarx1 = mean(varx1)
gen tvary = vary - tvarygen tvarx1 = varx1 - tvarx1
reg tvary tvarx1, noconstant
Best,
Hawal
