Pol Sci 582. Quantitative Political Methodology II: Maximum Likelihood

Stata Datasets from King's Unifying Political Methodology

The following are Stata 6.0 datasets that can be used to replicate much of the analysis in King's Unifying Political Methodology. Thanks to Gary King for granting permission to convert and distribute these datasets. All of the following were converted from the GAUSS files distributed in the Maxlik package at King's website: http://gking.harvard.edu/. I converted the datasets with DBMS/COPY, and added labels to the dataset and each variable. Below you can download a Stata 6.0 file and a text file that describes each dataset. Note that these descriptions come verbatim from the Maxlik distribution.

Stata Datasets from Long's Regression Models for Categorical and Limited Dependent Variables

Scott Long distributes the datasets from his text at his website: http://www.indiana.edu/~jslsoc/. There you can find descriptions of the datasets as well as useful Stata tutorials for much of the analysis in the text. I have unzipped the archive, and distribute each Stata file separately below.

  • Labor Force Participation Data 1976 from T. Mroz (binlfp.dta)
