similar to: Heckman probit ?

Thanks to Justin, Baptiste, and Sebed for your answers. The solutions work well. I have been putting them to good use today: the code now works wonderfully and I learnt some useful tricks! thanks, Peter <-----Original Message-----> >From: justin bem [justin_bem@yahoo.fr] >Sent: 9/8/2009 9:06:23 AM >To: heltertwo@care2.com >Cc: r-help@stat.math.ethz.ch >Subject: Re: Re :

Hi dear R-helpers, Happy new year. I have estimated Gini index variance in the case of complex survey (stratify and with two stage sampling). I use the survey package. I use replication (bootstrap, and Jacknife) and linearisation according to Binder (1993) article David A.

Team, I am trying to resolve the self-selection bias of a sample in an experiment and would like to run the Heckman Correction Estimation using R. Can someone help me with the R-Code...

Hi, I wrote a function to perform a two-step Heckman (also known as "heckit") estimation. This function is mainly a wrapper function to "glm" (1st step probit estimation) and "lm" (2nd step OLS estimation). Though this function is not perfect yet, it is IMHO already very useful. Since there were some questions about Heckmann estimation in this list, I would like

Hello all I have been working to fix this for weeks now, It should be simple to fix. Please help Let me explain what I am doing, I have a data set for 65 countries over a period of 9 years (2000-2008). Each country has on an average say 2000 interviews, so that the total set has roughly 65*9*2000 data points/observations (of course there are missing vales as well). Now let me explain how are the

I have so far used the following command glm(formula = s ~ age + gender + gemedu + gemhinc + es_gdppc + imf_pop + estbbo_m, family = binomial(link = "probit")) My question is 1. How do i discard the non significant selection variables (one out of the seven variables above is non-significant) and calculate the Inverse Mills Ratio of the significant variables 2. I need the inverse

Hello folks, I am trying to estimate the two-step Heckman regression model. I would like to make an adjustment for intragroup correlations. Stata can implement this with the "cluster" option, but I am really hoping to stick with R. It seems that the micEcon package is the primary source for this two-step regression model (i.e., heckit), but I can't find a way to make the

thanks a lot Renaud. but i was interested in Finney's fiducial confidence intervals of LD50 so to obtain comparable results with SPSS. But your reply leads me to the next question: does anybody know what is the best method (asymptotic, bootstrap etc.) for calculating confidence intervals of LD50? i could "get rid" of Finney's fiducial confidence intervals but

When using function heckit() from package ‘sampleSelection’, is there anyway to make t-tests for the coefficients using robust covariance matrix estimator? By “robust” I mean something like if a had an object ‘lm’ called “reg” and then used: > coeftest(reg, vcov = vcovHC(reg)). I’m asking this because in Stata we could use function heckman and then use vce option “robust”. We could do the

Hello, I am working on reproducing someone's analysis which was done in Stata. The analysis is estimation of a standard Heckman sample selection model (Tobit-2), for which I am using the sampleSelection package and the selection() function. I have a few problems with the estimation: 1) The reported standard error for all estimates is Inf ... vcov(selectionObject) yields Inf in every
