How to report p-values in asdoc nested table

[Connor]

#2975

First of all thank you so much for creating this wonderful tool!

I want to ask if it is possible to report the p values instead of Standard Error in the nested table. I understand that the *** stars are meant to measure the significance level but I wonder if the p value itself can be visualized in the table.

Thank you so much. I truly appreciate it.

I updated asdoc today to add support for reporting p-values in the nested regression tables. You can now use the option rep(p) to report p-values. rep() option can also be used to report either :

1. t-values using                 rep(t)
2. standard errors using   rep(se)
3. p-values with using         rep(p)

The new version of asdoc can be installed from my site. Copy and paste the following line in Stata and press enter.
net install asdoc, from(http://fintechprofessor.com) replace

Please note that the above line has to be copied in full. After installation of the new version, then restart Stata.

Following is an example of a nested table with p-values

*Use auto dataset in our example
sysuse auto, clear

*First regression of the nested table
asdoc reg price mpg rep78, nest rep(p) replace

*Second regression, this time I am not using the option replace. 
asdoc reg price mpg rep78 trunk , nest rep(p)

*And one more regression
asdoc reg price  rep78 trunk , nest rep(p)

* Following is the output table

Professor, the nest function is reporting errors after the update.

func_nested_reg():  3001  expected 25 arguments but received 29
                 <istmt>:     -  function returned error

which didn’t occur before using the same code.

It seems to me your previous installation still resides somewhere on your system. To completely uninstall all instances of asdoc, please do the following.

You should first uninstall asdoc completely using the following code, then reinstall asdoc and then restart your Stata.

net install uninstall_asdoc, from(http://fintechprofessor.com) replace

uninstall_asdoc

*And then install asdoc again
net install asdoc, from(http://fintechprofessor.com) replace

Thank you so much for creating this! I have my table outputting p-values now (thanks!) but I am not longer able to control how many decimals I receive in the output. I want 3 but am only getting 2. I’ve tried using dec(3) and tzok. Is there something about this new version that I should know when trying to specify decimals for my regression output?

I just checked it and the dec() option works fine. Perhaps, after updating asdoc, the old macros were still in the memory, please restart Stata and check again. Or perhaps, you may like to reinstall asdoc

The new version of asdoc can be installed from my site. Copy and paste the following line in Stata and press enter.

net install asdoc, from(http://fintechprofessor.com) replace

Wonderful! Thank you. I got it to work with OLS. However, when I’m using a logit model, asdoc is pulling in the z-score and not p-values. Am I doing something wrong?

I came to this thread to see if i could add p-values to my nested tables. It wasn’t working, so I uninstalled then reinstalled the program, closed and restarted STATA. Asdoc will not work at all now (oh no!). It tells me “command asdoc not defined by asdoc.do”. Can you assist? Thank you for the program!

Sometimes this happens due to incomplete transfer of files from the server. The new version of asdoc can be installed from my site. Copy and paste the following line in Stata and press enter.
net install asdoc, from(http://fintechprofessor.com) replace

Please note that the above line has to be copied in full. After installation of the new version, then restart Stata.

asdocx is now avaialble
A more powerful and flexible version of asdoc is now available. I call it asdocx. You may like to check the details here

Thank you! It is now working again. However, rep(p) won’t work. I can get rep(t) and rep(se) to work, but not rep(p). The command will run, but p values display in the table. Any suggestions? Thank you for your time.

#4030

As an update to the last post, when I input rep(p), I get the z values in the tables rather than the p values.

Thanks again.

Please post your code to reproduce the error.

#4036

asdoc xtreg y x, re robust, nest rep(p) replace

The numbers in paratheses are z values rather than p values. The p-value should be .068

Table : Regression results
(1)
Example Y
Example X -248373.700*
(-1.827)

_cons -2546170.801
(-1.496)
Observations 161
r2_p .z

p-values are in parentheses
*** p<.01, ** p<.05, * p<.1

Thank you again!
