Say you used the command -xtfoo- to estimate your model(*), than you
would need to look for the manual entry -xtfoo postestimation-. Within
that entry you would need to look at the section Methods and formulas.
Note that the manual is the set of books or the pdf files that comes
with Stata, not the (smcl-)file that is displayed when you type in
Stata -help xtfoo postestimation- (this, however, will provide a link
to the necessary place inside the .pdf file.).

(*) -xtfoo- does not exist, but since you did not tell us what you
used to estimate your random effects model I just "invented" an -xt-
command.
