Multivariate probit regression using simulated maximum likelihood

TL;DR: In this paper, the application of the GHK simulation method for maximum likelihood estimation of the multivariate probit regression model is discussed, and a Stata program mvprobit is described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modelling low income transitions

TL;DR: The authors examined the determinants of low income transitions using first-order Markov models that control for initial conditions effects (those found to be poor in the base year may be a nonrandom sample) and for attrition (panel retention may also be non-random).

Does union membership really reduce job satisfaction

TL;DR: This paper investigated the effect of union membership on job satisfaction and found that a selection effect, rather than a causal effect, explains the relationship between union membership and overall job satisfaction, and the marked difference in job satisfaction between unionised and non-unionised workers characterising raw data disappears.

Calculation of Multivariate Normal Probabilities by Simulation, with Applications to Maximum Simulated Likelihood Estimation Discussion Papers

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss methods for calculating multivariate normal probabilities by simulation and two new Stata programs for this purpose: mdraws for deriving draws from the standard uniform density using either Halton or pseudorandom sequences, and an egen function, mvnp(), for calculating the probabilities themselves.
