[Limdep Nlogit List] probability for each observation

[Jill Caviglia-Harris]

Bill:

Thanks.  I want to plot the probability (of participation) for different groups of observations.  The ;PROB = pvalue is what I was after.  I can then use the create command to save these values for different groups (or select another way).  Thanks.  -Jill

Jill.  ;PROB = pvalue
saves the probabiliities as a variable named pvalue. But, it doesn't
sound like this is what you are after. This is not a marginal effect.
For that you want a density, which you can compute using a simple
CREATE command. But, it's still not clear what you want to plot against
what here.
Cheers,
Bill Greene

LimDep Group:

I have estimated a probit model and would like to plot the probability results (and create a probability value for each observation).  Given that the marginal effects are calculated at the mean of the RHS variables, these estimation results cannot be used for this purpose.  Is there a command for the probit estimation that generates the probability for each observation?  Thanks.
