hi, and if you could look at below outputs from STATA and let me know what you think. When I used vce option, the results for vce (robust) and vce (cluster...) are very different. do you know why?
thanks

. regress IPVlife neonatal, vce (cluster HHCLUST)

Linear regression Number of obs = 32115
F( 1, 730) = 2.54
Prob > F = 0.1117
R-squared = 0.0001
Root MSE = .42334

(Std. Err. adjusted for 731 clusters in HHCLUST)
------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------
| Robust
IPVlife | Coef. Std. Err. t P>|t| [95% Conf. Interval]
-------------+---------------------------------------------- ------------------
neonatal | .0337656 .0212035 1.59 0.112 -.0078615 .0753928
_cons | 1.699111 .0427602 39.74 0.000 1.615164 1.783059

regress IPVlife neonatal, vce(robust)
