Hi Statalist,
I'm trying to use -etregress- to specify an endogenous treatment model, and have a question about how to interpret the different "panels" of the Stata output that are generated when doing this. Specifically, I'm confused about how the "second" panel of the main output table (which appears to show results from modeling selection into the treatment) differs from the first-stage probit results that are displayed when the -first- option is specified (which also appear to show the same thing).
The following example illustrates this more clearly.
produces two distinct output tables:
TABLE (A)
and TABLE (B)
My question is: how and why is TABLE (A) different from the second panel of TABLE (B), which is highlighted in red text?
Many thanks for your insights!
