Interaction terms are often misinterpreted in the empirical economics literature by assuming that the coefficient of interest represents unconditional marginal changes. I present the correct way to estimate conditional marginal changes in a series of non-linear models including (ordered)...

In this note I show that a typo in Stata’s help file may have contributed in wrongly estimating marginal changes after truncated and censored regression models. This has significant implications for empirical practice and results from published studies may need to be reconsidered.
