-2 log likelihood test • LL for Poisson = -22275.351 • LL for NB = 14519.721 • -2 LL difference = -15511
Cond. count data models • State level data on deaths of motor cycle drivers/riders, 1991-2004 for people aged 16-30 • Over this period, tremendous changes in motor cycle helmet laws • Do laws reduce mortality?
Covariates • Poisson/NB models • Ln(pop), ln(pci), helmet law, state & year effects • Conditional Poisson/NB models • The same except we condition on the state and drop the state effects • Ln(pop), ln(pci), helmet law, & year effects
Asking for fixed or random effects xtpoisson mc_deaths1630 `xlist2', i(fips) fe; xtnbreg mc_deaths1630 `xlist2', i(fips) fe; Dimension over which you condition
Summarize • Coefficients (std errors) on helmet law • Cond. Poisson -0.387 (0.032) • Cond. NB -0.348 (0.045) • Log likelihood • Cond. Poisson -1838.3 • Cond. NB -1813.7 • -2 log likelihood = 49.2 =χ2(1) • Reject Poisson is the correct model
Results similar to cond. model but w/ smaller std errors Easily reject delta=0
