*   1 Set-up your do-file

*   2 Load your data

*   3 Select one dependent count variable. Select at least three other 
    **variables. Make sure to include one binary and one continuous 
    **independent variable. 

*   4 Explore these variables. 
    **Make sure to look at the distribution of your outcome variable.

*   5 Estimate a NBRM. 

*   6 List the factor change coefficients using listcoef, help. 
    **Interpret a few of the unstandardized and 
    **standardized factor change coefficients. 

/*
write your interpretations here

*   7 Test NBRM against PRM and write up the results as though 
    **it were part of a research paper. 
    **(Hint: use the LR test results at the end of the NBRM output)
