I am analyzing a panel data that collects information on children every two years since 2010, so the panel data has a total of five waves (2010,12,14,16,18). I want to know the association of family structure (especially parental absence) on child's mental health (whether child (age>=10) are depressed or not). I am using xtlogit command with either re / fe option to run random and fixed effect models.
Besides family structure variables, I have included child's age and its quadratic term as the independent variables, and both are significant.
However, when I included the panel indicator dummies (cfps_wave: panel year indicators 2012, 2014, 2016, 2018), the coefficients and significant levels for the age and the family structure variables changed considerably.
Code:
. xtlogit depress2cat ib1.race_han_x c.age_self_x##c.age_self_x ib3.tz_4cat i.region3cat, fe nolog or
