Hey all,
I want to regress ln(income) on some variables such as education, computer skills and other skill indicators. At first, I used a simple OLS regression for observations from the same year 2008. Now I am concerned about reversed causality, such that people with higher income could invest into courses to improve their skills. I want to reduce reverse causality concerns by using income data for 2014. When I run the regression, stata tells me that there are no observations which makes sense after browsing the data. Is there any "short" command where I can tell stata to use data on income for 2014 and the rest for 2008.
Thank you in advance!
Paul
