Description
reganat is a graphical tool for inspecting the effect of a covariate on a dependent variable in the context of multivariate OLS estimation. The name is an acronym for the expression regression anatomy, a result in OLS' algebra originally due to Frisch and Waugh (1933) and recently revived by Angrist and Pischke's Mostly Harmless Econometrics (2009).
In a bivariate regression model Y = bx1 + g, the graphical inspection of the scatterplot provides useful information on the relation between the independent variable x1 and the dependent variable Y, but can be highly misleading when the underlying real model is multivariate of the type Y = X'B + e where X' includes also x1.
In general, the OLS multivariate estimator is not equivalent to an OLS estimator obtained using a separate regression on each independent variable since correlation among independent variables must be accounted for.
Angrist and Pischke (2009) show that in a multivariable model, the regression parameter for a given regressor is the bivariate slope coefficient for the corresponding regressor after partialling out all other covariates. Accordingly, this command displays a table of scatterplots, with the dependent variable plotted against the independent variable net of any linear correlation with the other independent variables. This combined graph can be helpful when inspecting the data for outliers, nonlinearities, and other modelling issues.
