Thanks and best regards Marc Wildi [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

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

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

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

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...

Dear all, Can anyone take a look at my program below? There are two functions: f1 (lambda,z,p1) and f2(p1,cl, cu). I fixed p1=0.15 for both functions. For any fixed value of lambda (between 0.01 and 0.99), I solve f1(p1=0.15, lambda=lambda, z)=0 for the corresponding cl and cu values. Then I plug the calculated cl and cu back into the function f2. Eventually, I want to find the lambda value

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

A lambda is a fancy name for an anonymous or unbound function. Its significance comes from the fact that it is completely stateless, producing no

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
