  • xtreg post-estimation for unused observations

    Consider the following example that estimates the individual heterogeneity (or fixed-effects).
    Code:
    clear all
    webuse nlswork
    
    quietly xtset idcode year
    quietly xtreg ln_wage age i.race wks_work if msp == 1, fe
    
    predict het1, u
    As the Stata manual "xtreg postestimation" page 2 states, the predict, u command caculates the heterogeneity only for the estimation sample (i.e. for the individuals with msp == 1).

    Here, I want to estimate the heterogeneity for individuals with msp == 0.
    So, I used the if condition:
    Code:
    predict het0 if !e(sample), u
    But, the returns are just missing values.

    Of course, I can fill the missing values manually (with additional command lines).
    However, I am now wondering whether there is a way to get the estimates using one predict command.

    If that is possible, how can I do that?
