lmnwhite: OLS White Non Normality Lagrange Multiplier Test

+--------+ ----+ Syntax +-----------------------------------------------------------

lmnwhite depvar indepvars [if] [in] [weight] , [ noconstant vce( vcetype) ]

+---------+ ----+ Options +----------------------------------------------------------

noconstant suppress constant term

SE/Robust vce(vcetype) vcetype may be ols, robust, cluster clustvar, bootstrap, jackknife, hc2, or hc3

+-------------+ ----+ Description +------------------------------------------------------

lmnwhite computes White Non Normality Test for OLS residuals after regress command.

+---------------+ ----+ Saved Results +----------------------------------------------------

lmnwhite saves the following in r():

r(lmn) White IM Test r(lmnp) White IM Test P-Value r(lmndf) Degrees of Freedom
