# Average treatment effect , binary outcome and odds ratio

I am struggling with ATE. I have two treatment group in a cohort (binary 0=treatment A; 1=treatment B). I want to know the odds of variable Y (binary 0=no event; 1=event) b/w two treatment groups while controlling independent variables. I am using teffects ra command with logit function. However, the output is in Coef.. I assume these are exponentiated coefficients. What i understood is i have to convert these Coefficients to exponentiated to get Odds ratios. As i cant interpret nominal variable like contrinoues by using these. Am i missing something to get odds ratios ?

Thank you in advance

• You are misunderstanding what Stata is doing. The ATE of 0.6 percentage points already takes the logit functional form into the account, so you don't need to do anything. See here for more details. You should also peruse the pdf manual for teffects ra. – Dimitriy V. Masterov May 26 '20 at 18:27
