Re: st: Estimating MNL model

[Richard Williams <richardwilliams.ndu@gmail.com>]

Like Maarten, I am not totally sure what you want. But, Long and 
Freese do have an entire chapter on "Models for nominal outcomes with 
alternative specific data." Among other things they talk about the 
clogit command. They also describe various utilities for setting the 
data up and interpreting the results.
For more, see

http://www.stata.com/bookstore/regression-models-categorical-dependent-variables/

See especially chapter 7 and maybe chapter 6. My best guess is that 
you especially want
7.2.5 Using clogit with case- and alternative-specific variables


If you type -findit spost9- you can get the programs used in the book.

If this isn't the sort of thing you are looking for, then please 
provide additional details.
As a sidelight I have read various descriptions of the clogit command 
-- Long & Freese's, and using clogit for fixed effects models -- and 
it sort of amazes me that they are talking about the same command, as 
the uses seem radically different.
