OUTPUT Statement
OUTPUT <OUT=SAS-data-set> <output-options> ;
The OUTPUT statement creates a new SAS data set containing all variables in the input data set and, optionally, the estimates of 
, predicted value, residual, marginal effects, probability, standard deviation of the error, expected value, conditional expected value, technical efficiency measures, and inverse Mills ratio. When the response values are missing for the observation, all output estimates except residual are still computed as long as none of the explanatory variables is missing. This enables you to compute these statistics for prediction. You can specify only one OUTPUT statement.
Details about the specifications in the OUTPUT statement are as follows:
- CONDITIONAL
outputs estimates of conditional expected values of continuous endogenous variables.
- ERRSTD
outputs estimates of
, the standard deviation of the error term. - EXPECTED
outputs estimates of expected values of continuous endogenous variables.
- MARGINAL
- MILLS
outputs estimates of inverse Mills ratios of censored or truncated continuous, binary discrete, and selection endogenous variables.
- OUT=SAS-data-set
- PREDICTED
- PROB
outputs estimates of probability of discrete endogenous variables taking the current observed responses.
- PROBALL
outputs estimates of probability of discrete endogenous variables for all possible responses.
- RESIDUAL
outputs estimates of residuals of continuous endogenous variables.
- XBETA
- TE1
outputs estimates of technical efficiency for each producer in the stochastic frontier model suggested by Battese and Coelli (1988).
- TE2
outputs estimates of technical efficiency for each producer in the stochastic frontier model suggested by Jondrow et al. (1982).
