Weighted random effects linear model

        xtregre2 depvar [indepvars] [weight] [if] [in] [  i(varname) theta ]


    xtregre2 is an update to Kevin McKinney's -rfregk-.

    Only aweights are allowed; see weight.

Description

 
xtregre2 estimates a random effects model with aweights.

Options

i(varname) specifies the variable name that contains the unit to which the
    observation belongs. Note that you need not specify i() if the data have
    been previously tsset or if iis has been previously specified--in these
    cases, the group variable is taken from the previous setting. See help 
    tsset.


theta specifies that the output should include the estimated value of theta
    used in combining the between and fixed estimators.  For balanced data,
    this is a constant, and for unbalanced data, a summary of the values is
    presented in the header of the output.
