Hello everyone,


I would like to add a trend variable in my Tobit model since I was adviced not to use a fixed effect (i.Year). My panel data consists of 183 municipalities observed from the year 2003 to 2016. (=2562 no of obs)


I used a cmd:

by Municipality: gen Trend=_n

I wonder if this is correct?


Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

Annaliza
