I an running xtreg model for panel data analysis. Can I estimate the marginal effect after running xtreg, fe or re model? Normally, I found that marginal effect is estimated after logit or tobit models only.
I don't have any experience in running these models, even though I have an idea what they are. Hence, given the lack of experience, in this, context, I couldn't comment on the reliability of them. One suggestion would be to consider the mean squared error of the two models, if you had another predictor to validate against.
If you type help xtreg postest, you'll see that the margins command is available as one of the post-estimation commands after xtreg. To estimate marginal effects, use margins, dydx(varname). See help margins for more information.
