Good day
I am using conmand "sptobitsemxt " to run the Tobit MLE Spatial Error Panel Normal Model (SEM). (Ps. my dataset is a banlanced panel with 30 provinces during 2000 to 2021)
However, "matrix operation not found" appears in the results.(And when I run "sptobitsdmxt" for the Tobit MLE Spatial Panel Durbin Regression, the same problem appears again.)
In the other post "https://www.statalist.org/forums/forum/general-stata-discussion/general/1445508-matrix-operation-not-found-tobit-m "le-spatial-error-panel-normal-model-sem" saw similar requests for help, but did not find an effective method.
My command is below:
sptobitsemxt TEA ML ER ES TP OL IA OS , nc(30) wmfile(W2.dta) ll(0) diag test
The results are as follows:
