Dear all,
I have been estimating a tobit model with selection and an endogenous regressor using the code below (and it seems to work). However I have alternative measures of the dependent variable ( dichotomous, categorical). I wonder if I can just modify this specification from tobit to probit/poisson/ordered probit as I change my dependent variable?
Below is the code I used for tobit with selection.
SKIP$
PROBIT
;Lhs=hadsex;Rhs=ONE,BLACK,COLOURED,FEMALE,EDUC,INFHIV,HIVKNOW,MLIFEEXP,
VLIFEEXP, AGE_10, AGE_2, CHILDEXP ; Hold $
select;TOBIT; Lhs = RISKp ; Rhs = ONE, BLACK, COLOURED, FEMALE, EDUC, INFHIV,
HIVKNOW, MLIFEEXP, VLIFEEXP, AGE_10$
MATRIX;BT=1/S*b$
MAXIMIZE;Labels = b0,b1,b2
; start = 0,0,0
; Fcn = b0+b1*educ+b2*BLACK;INST=CONDOM,BLACK,COLOURED;mle $
Many thanks in advance.
