Stata outreg2 for pseudo-R^2 of logit regression

[James Park]

I am running logit but outreg2 does not automatically report pseudo-R^2.

From fitstat, I know how to get lots of different measures of goodness-of-fit measures for logit regression.

But still I can't figure out how to force outreg2 to report them to a neat either txt or excel outcome.

What I trying is just standard code

logit y x if z==1
outreg2 using output.xls, append ctitle(output)

How should I go about it?

Welcome to Statalist.

From the output of help logit we see that the pseudo R-squared is returned in e(r2_p).

From the output of help outreg2 we see that the e() or addstat() options allow you to specify additional estimate outputs.

You can use e( ) or addstat( ) option to augment the standard regression results with other e-class statistics (scalar only). addstat can handle r-class and s-class results as well, if they exist. The following codes are equivalent excpet in appearance.

outreg2 using myfile, e(r2 ll)
outreg2 using myfile, addstat(R-squared by hand, e(r2), Log Lik, e(ll))

So it seems the addition to the outreg2 options list of

e(r2_p)

would add it to the output, as would

addstat(Pseudo R2, e(r2_p))
