stats(scalarlist[, stats_subopts]) specifies one or more scalar
        statistics - separated by white space - to be displayed at the bottom
        of the table. The scalarlist may contain e() scalars and the
        following statistics:

aic Akaike's information criterion bic Schwarz's information criterion rank rank of e(V), i.e. the number of free parameters in model p the p-value of the model (overall model significance)

See help estimates for details on the aic and bic statistics. The rules for the determination of p are as follows (note that although the procedure outlined below is appropriate for most models, there might be some models for which it is not):

1) p-value provided: If the e(p) scalar is provided by the estimation command, it will be interpreted as indicating the p-value of the model.

2) F test: If e(p) is not provided, estout checks for the presence of the e(df_m), e(df_r), and e(F) scalars and, if they are present, the p-value of the model will be calculated as Ftail(df_m,df_r,F). This p-value corresponds to the standard overall F test of linear regression.

3) chi2 test: Otherwise, if neither e(p) nor e(F) is provided, estout checks for the presence of e(df_m) and e(chi2) and, if they are present, calculates the p-value as chi2tail(df_m,chi2). This p-value corresponds to the Likelihood-Ratio or Wald chi2 test.

4) If neither e(p), e(F), nor e(chi2) is available, no p-value will be reported.

The following stats_subopts are available. Use:

fmt(fmtlist) to set the display formats for the scalar statistics in scalarlist. For instance, fmt(%9.3f %9.0f) would be a good choice for stats(r2_a N). See help format. The last format in fmtlist is used for the remaining scalars if scalarlist has more elements than fmtlist does. Thus, only one format need be specified if all scalars are to be displayed in the same format. If no format is specified, the default format is the display format of the coefficients.

labels(str_list[, label_subopts]) to specify labels for the scalars in scalarlist. If specified, the labels are used instead of the scalar names. For example:

. estout ..., stats(r2_a N, labels("Adj. R-Square" "Number of Cases"))

star[(star_scalarlist)] to specify that the overall significance of the model be denoted by stars. The stars are attached to the scalar statistics specified in star_scalarlist. If star_scalarlist is omitted, the stars are attached to the first reported scalar statistic. The printing of the stars is suppressed in empty results cells (i.e. if the scalar statistic in question is missing for a certain model). The determination of the model significance is based on the p-value of the model (see above).

Hint: It is possible to attach the stars to different scalar statistics within the same table. For example, specify stats(,star(r2_a r2_p)) when tabulating OLS estimates and, say, probit estimates. For the OLS models, the F test will be carried out and the significance stars will be attached to the r2_a; for the probit models, the chi2 test will be used
