similar to: Heckit model with Robus std error fit

Dear All, we (Ott Toomet and I) would like to add functions for maximum likelihood (ML) estimations of generalized tobit models of type 2 and type 5 (*see below) in my R package for microeconomic analysis "micEcon". So far we have called these functions "tobit2( )" and "tobit5( )". Are these classifications well known? How are these functions called in other

Hi, I have used the heckit function in micEcon. Now I would like to evaluate the fit of the probit part of the model but when I enter AIC(sk$probit) I get this error Error in logLik(object) : no applicable method for "logLik" How can I then get the AIC for this model? Side question: If you know - from the top of your head - some link to readings dealing with evaluating the

Hi I have data for voting behaviour on two (related) binary votes. I want to examine the second vote, running separate regressions for groups who voted different ways on the first vote. As the votes are not independent, I guess that there is an issue with selection bias. So, I think I would like to fit a heckit style model but with a binary dependent variable - so, in effect, two successive

Dear R Help, I'm using the sampleSelection library to run a heckman model. The default is to use a probit model for the selection equation. I would like to know if it is possible to use a clog-log for the selection equation either with the sampleSelection library or in a different way. Is this possible? I'd appreciate any advice! -- Dan McDowell [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

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 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

Dear All, I would like to publish a function for 'heckit' estimations together with two examples from Greene's and Wooldridge's econometric textbooks. These examples use the dataset of Mroz (1987) that is also available in John Fox' "car" package. However, not all variables that are used in my examples are available in the "car" package. Therefore, I

Hi! I have just install SUSE 9.1 on my computer that is on a network. First time I use samba I could view others computer on the network. The I try to share something so I configured samba server, and after that anithing works ok. When I try to go through the network via smb:/ I recieve a message saying that any workgroup is found. CAn anyone help me?

Hello, I am trying to Backup a Windows Machine to a Linux Server - and I want to preserve the ACLs. I installed the cwRsync server on the Windowsside (with the rsync-acl.exe) and I am trying to backup this machine from the linux-side usind rsnapshot. But the files lose the acls and get user:400 and group:401! Did anybody manage this task? If yes - how??????? Thanks in advance Fink Oliver

Hi, First of all, I'm new to ocfs2 and drbd. I set up two identical servers (Athlon64, 1GB RAM, GB-Ethernet) with Debian Etch, compiled my own kernel (2.6.16.20), then compiled the drbd-modules and ocfs (modules and tools) from source. The process of getting everything up and running was very easy. I have one big 140GB partition that is synced with drbd (in c-mode) and has an ocfs2

Dear all, I have uploaded a new package called micEcon (version 0.1-3) to CRAN (an early version of this package has been already presented at useR! 2004). It contains tools for microeconomic analysis and microeconomic modeling. These are for instance: - tools for demand analysis with the 'Almost Ideal Demand System' (AIDS): e.g. econometric estimation, calculation of price and

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
