A helpful discussion (click here) on the StataList regarding the comparative advantages between estimating a linearity probability model (reg) versus a standard logistic (logit)

model to predict a binary (1,0) outcome. (Further complicating the StatList discussion is the possibility of a rare event.) Critical to such a discussion, however, [...]

A recent discussion on the StataList (here) delves into subtle differences that distinguish inserting fixed effects into an ordered logit estimation (ologit) and estimating

a model using the feologit command. As the discussion emphasizes, the appropriate approach pivots largely on different types of "fixed effects." Specifically, the [...]
