I am still new in SAS and trying to modelize my first probit model. I am using the following sequence of command in order to obtain my probit estimate:
proc logistic data=pop_final;
class SEX (REF="M") AGEGR (REF="3") NON_EE (REF="0")/PARAM=REF;
model SCIENCE = SEX AGEGR NON_EE / link=probit technique=newton;
ods output parameterestimates=prbparms;
output out=outprb prob=p xbeta=xbpr;
run;
However, I would now like to replicate the margins command in STATA (http://www.stata.com/manuals13/rmargins.pdf). It allowed me to estimate margins of responses for specified values of covariates of a previously fit model. For example, following my probit model that estimated, in particular, the effect of changing industry of employment following a layoff, I was able to use the margin command to estimate the probability of a workers being laid-off from a specific industry to change industry in his following job.
Would someone know a command in SAS that could replicate what I was able to do with STATA?
Thank you in advance
Sounds like you want to estimate so-called marginal effects which are the derivative of the event probability with respect to a predictor of interest. See this note.
I think you might be looking for the, "LS-Means" option??
Also, here is this Proc GENMOD Logistic Regression . GENMOD will let you use the LS-Means statement.
Alternatively, Proc GLIMMIX . Even though you may not ever use the random intercepts or slopes. I tend to go with Glimmix, because the "NLOPTIONS" statement lets you be fairly flexable if the model has a difficult time converging.
I think each one of those procedures has information on the LS-means functionality.
Good luck!

Yeah, I totally misunderstood. What @StatDave said is where you need to be.
Sorry for the delay in the reply, thank you for your help!

ANOVA, or Analysis Of Variance, is used to compare the averages or means of two or more populations to better understand how they differ. Watch this tutorial for more.
