XLINK: Stata module to provide extra link functions for use with glm

Statistical Software Components from Boston College Department of Economics

Abstract: xlink is a library of extra link functions for use with glm. A user-defined link function for glm is implemented as an ado file, with the same name as the link function, taking 4 arguments containing, respectively, a to-do indicator, the name of the variable containing the link functions of the predicted means, the name of the variable containing the predicted means, and the name of the variable containing the first or second derivatives of the means with respect to the link functions. The to-do indicator is an integer argument, with values from -1 to 3, indicating whether the ado-file is being asked to set global macros, link functions, predicted means, first derivatives of predicted means, and second derivatives of predicted means, respectively.
