It computes a goodness-of-fit score test. {title:Option} {p 4 8 2} {cmd:bootstrap(}{it:#}{cmd:)} computes the {it:p}-value by bootstrapping the test using the specified number of bootstrap replications. If this option is not specified, {it:p}-values are computed using an asymptotic chi-squared distribution. {title:Remarks} {p 4 4 2} {cmd:scoregof} cannot be used if {helpb probit}, {helpb dprobit}, or {helpb biprobit} was called with any of the following options: {cmd:partial}, {cmd:offset}, {cmd:constraints}. {p 4 4 2} After {helpb biprobit}, the test still works if one of the left-hand-side variables appears on the right side of the other equation. {p 4 4 2} The test is performed on the estimation sample. {title:Saved results} {pstd} {cmd:scoregof} saves the following in {cmd:r()}: {synoptset 25 tabbed}{...} {p2col 5 25 29 2: Scalars}{p_end} {synopt:{cmd:r(scorestat)}}test statistic{p_end} {synopt:{cmd:r(p)}}{it:p}-value{p_end} {title:References} {p 4 8 2} Chiburis, R.
