Dear all,
I want to apply the Heckman correction to the Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition analysis.
My dataset contains the following variables:
I have created global set of variables to use in the analysis:
The problem comes when I execute the command:
and I get the following error:
Do you have suggestions on how to overcome this issue?
Thank you in advance!
I want to apply the Heckman correction to the Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition analysis.
My dataset contains the following variables:

I have created global set of variables to use in the analysis:
Code:
global y "lnwage" // dependent variable global x "age qual_1 qual_2 qual_3 qual_5 schooling honors city_size exper exper2 private temporary sect_1 sect_2 sect_3 sect_4 sect_5 sect_6 sect_7 sect_8 overtime" // independent variable global z "age married fam_size child qual_1 qual_2 qual_3 qual_5 schooling honors homeowner it city_size exper exper2 private temporary sect_1 sect_2 sect_3 sect_4 sect_5 sect_6 sect_7 sect_8 overtime" //set of covariates for the labour force participation equation (lfp), where lfp is equal to 0 if housewives, equal to 1 if working people
Code:
oaxaca $y $x, by(female) model1(heckman, twostep select(lfp=$z)) model2(heckman, twostep select(lfp=$z))
Code:
Model for group 1 Dependent variable never censored because of selection: model would simplify to OLS regression r(498);
Thank you in advance!
