Stata 9.2, Windows XP
I'm having trouble executing this -forval- code:
webuse nlswork
reg ln_wage age race grade if year==68
predict r1, r
whitetst, fitted
forval i=69(1)88 {
reg ln_wage age race grade if year==`i'
predict r`i', r
reg r`i' r`i_[n-1]'
whitetst, fitted
}
The problem, of course, is with -reg r`i' r`i_[n-1]'-, which chokes
with the error code:
r ambiguous abbreviation
r(111);
Even after checking -h forval-, I can't find a satisfactory way of
getting Stata to automate the second residual term, which should be
the one estimated for the year before the first one in each
-regress-ion.
All solutions gratefully received.

You have an old version:
. which whitetst
c:\ado\plus\w\whitetst.ado
*! whitetst 1.2.3 CFB/NJC 17 Feb 2002 add fitted option for special
form of test
According to the help,
"Alternatively, a special form of the test, described by Wooldridge
(2000, pp. 259-260), may be employed by specifying the fitted option.
In this form, the predicted values from the original regression and
their squares are used in place of the individual regressors, their
squares, and
their cross-products. This form of the test imposes constraints on
the auxiliary regression, but may be a very attractive alternative if
the original regressor list is lengthy."

not perfectly clear to me if this is what you want, but the following code
runs for me until the year 1974 where there are no observations:
***********
webuse nlswork
reg ln_wage age race grade if year==68
predict r68, r
whitetst, fitted
forval i=69(1)88 {
local j = `i'-1
reg ln_wage age race grade if year==`i'
predict r`i', r
reg r`i' r`j'
whitetst, fitted
}
***********

A common trap. STB and Stata Journal programs are often less current
than the SSC version. adoupdate won't fix that; it only looks for
newer versions posted on the same site as where you got the
original. You have to install the SSC version (or the version from
whatever site has the most current version).

Dear Clive,
I think that you can just do this:
webuse nlswork
reg ln_wage age race grade if year==68
predict r1, r
whitetst, fitted
forval i=69(1)88 {
reg ln_wage age race grade if year==`i'
predict r`i', r
reg r`i' L.r`i' /*change
r`i_[n-1]' to L.r`i'*/
whitetst, fitted
}
The result is the same of Rich Ochmann, but I'm not using a new local macro.

sorry, the result is not the same. In the Rich code the regress is,
for example, r73 against r72 and I'm doing r73 against r73 lagged.

This code worked perfectly for _all_ of my data, so thanks very much.
I should have said in my original post that -whitetst- is, of course,
a user-written routine available from SSC. Indeed, my use of it should
appear _before_ -reg r`i' r`j'- and not after. I really should learn
more about locals and globals...
