Abstract: bivpoisson implements the count-valued seemingly unrelated regression (count SUR) estimator proposed in Terza and Zhang (2021). This paper shows that bivpoisson affords greater precision and accuracy than Linear Seemingly Unrelated Regression (sureg) when the underlying data are correlated and count-valued; see Terza and Zhang (2021, https://doi.org/10.7912/C2/2873) for details and illustrations. Post-Estimation command (in development) associated with this package will support predictions and causal effects parameter estimation (i.e., Average Treatment Effects).
