Hi Stata Users
It seems simple but I have a question on how to manually calculate the marginal effects at mean for logit model. So basically I need to manually replicate the results of the output I obtained when I used margins, dydx (*) atmeans (in other words, I need to replicate the red colored numbers using a manual method). I tried several things but couldn't replicate it. My continuous variables are gre and gpa and the categorical variable is rank. The dataset is attached
use binary
qui logit admit gre gpa i.rank
margins , dydx(*) atmeans
The output is given below
. qui logit admit gre gpa i.rank
. margins , dydx(*) atmeans
Conditional marginal effects Number of obs = 400
Model VCE : OIM
Expression : Pr(admit), predict()
dy/dx w.r.t. : gre gpa 2.rank 3.rank 4.rank
at : gre = 587.7 (mean)
gpa = 3.3899 (mean)
1.rank = .1525 (mean)
2.rank = .3775 (mean)
3.rank = .3025 (mean)
4.rank = .1675 (mean)
