    Hello everyone.

    I am working with the command MMSEL in Stata 13.0 found here: http://fmwww.bc.edu/repec/bocode/m/mmsel.html. The command was developed as per the Machada and Moto (2005) methodology to decompose discrimination. I am having problem interpreting the results. The results look like this:

    If I am not mistaken the pred1 represents the total gap, the chars1 represents the gaps explained by differences explanators, and the ceof1 represents the gaps explained by coefficients. What I am not sure is what do the serial numbers at the first column (1, 2, 3, .... 20). My interest is primarily in quantiles 20, 40, 60 and 80 and I can't figure out which rows represent data for the said quantiles.

    With best regards

    Stanzin:
    wrong forum, as this one is for practicing with posting only.
    Please re-post your query on the General forum (and, as per FAQ, use CODE delimiters to show what you typed and what Stata gave you back. Thanks).
    Kind regards,
    Carlo

      Dear Carlo, the post was meant to be a practice . Unfortunately, I haven't got any feedback on the post I made on the general forum.
