  • logitfe numerica overflow error

    Hello, I'm trying to implement the -logitfe- model shown below. I want to lag my outcome variable Dental_Wave, by 1 time period, but I'm getting a numeric overflow problem. My dataset consists of 3 time periods and Observations: 27,447. I have included my code with the error below, any advice would be helpful.

    Code:
    
    sort year
    
    xtset aid year 
    
    
    . logitfe dental_Wave ///
    >     L1.dental_Wave ///  <- 1 to 4 lags of outcome
    >     c.depressive_symptoms_Wave c.age_Wave i.smoked_marijuana_alt_Wave i.smoked
    > _cigarettes_Wave ///
    >     i.alcohol_Wave i.education_Wave, ///
    >     analytical ieffects(yes) teffects(yes)
