Bootstrapped linear regression

[Alex Hartley]

Hello,
When you run a boostrapped regression in STATA, no F statistic is reported for the linear regression. Is there a particular reason for this?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Best wishes

Alex:
could you please share what you typed and what Stata gave you back (as per FAQ)? Thanks.

Hello,
Thank you for your reply! Unfortunately I cannot as my research institution accidentally revoked my access to the secure hub in which all my data analysis resides!
the command i used was

'bootstrap r(p50), reps (1000)'

I am really sorry if that does not help you at all!
Best wishes

without seeing what Stata actually did show you, and the exact command you used, this is unclear - however, you should note that the overall F statistic is replaced by a Wald chi-squared statistic in many situations - was there a Wald chi-squared stat reported? also did you note in the manual that using "vce(bootstrap ...)" is preferred in what I am guessing is your situation?

Hello Rich,
Thank you so much for your reply. I really appreciate how unclear it is and I apologise for that as I know that makes it very hard to help me!
Firstly, I actually did use vce(bootstrap), I just checked my notes and that IS the command I used.

Yes, a Wald chi-squared test statistic was reported. I have scoured online but am unable to find how to interpret the output of a wald chi squared. My result was 'Wald chi2 (9) = 318.22'.
Any help would be incredible!
Thank you
