Code:
probit math edu_exp i.child_gender attend margins, dydx(edu_exp) post //1 margins, dyex(edu_exp) post //2 margins, dydx(attend) post //3 margins, dyex(attend) post //4 margins, dydx(child_gender) post //5
1. What's the difference in interpretation between lines commented as //1 and //2? Which one should be used for a sensible interpretation?
2. Is line //4 "valid"? In other words, does it make sense to ask "if attendance rises by 1%, what's the change in probability of being proficient in math"?
Finally, a question about exporting the results. Stata doesn't allow using dydx and dyex options in the same line. I am using user contributed -esttab- to export results to LaTeX. Is there a way to combine dydx and dyex with minimal manual work? Right now I am using:
Code:
margins dyex(edu_exp) post est store results1 esttab results1 using "mypath", /// tex label replace title("my title")
