Dear all,
I'm currently running the Oaxaca-Blinder Decomposition on a binary outcome variable, stunting. I'm using the following command:
xi: oaxaca stunting i.sex i.feeding i.environment i.other-categorical-variables (iw=weight) , by (year) logit cluster(hh)
I calculate percentage of explained contribution for each significant variable using the following formula:
(endowment for individual variable/ overall endowments) *100.
However, the problem I'm running into is that the sum of the explained contributions i.e. when I added percentages for sex (50%), feeding (40%), and environment (40%) etc is greater than 100%. This does not make sense.
Is there something wrong with my code? Please guide. I will be very thankful for any assistance. Thank you so much!
Best wishes,
Hina.
