It means that you have the wrong number of starting values in your optim
statement.

Subject: [gov2001-l] non-finite value supplied by optim
Good evening all,
I am now making a new model
but get the following warning.
Olivia.
alogit(y ~ xn, ~ zn, n, data)
Error in
optim(c(start, rep(0, (k2 + 2))), llik.alogit, method
= "BFGS", : non-finite value supplied by optim
Does it mean MLEs become inifinity?
And what can I do?
Kentaro

New subject: [gov2001-l] Methods Presentation Friday
Hi everyone,
I am presenting a methods paper this Friday at 12:00 (pizza) in Littauer
M-17 (next to the Science Center). You will probably get something out of
the presentation that you can apply to your Gov2001 paper if your
replication involves "clustered" data (the same people/countries over time
or something like that). The presentation is going to focus on least squares
estimators but will address probit etc. briefly.

Hope to see you there,
Ben
