When I use the xtreg command with fixed effects to look at the correlation between use of marijuana and my dependent variable: income, I get the number 119. However, when I add the squared variable for use of marijuana (value -72), the coefficient for the non squared use of marijuana jumps from 119 to 586.
How should I interpret this?
(I use the NSLY79 data set)
