Return values
Scalars r(N) Number of observations used r(chi2_p) p value of the chi-squared statistic r(chi2) Chi-squared statistic
Examples
sysuse auto
probit foreign weight mpg
skprobit foreign weight mpg
The result shows that the Ho (Normality) hypothesis of the residuals is rejected in this example. The residuals are not normal in this case.
webuse lbw
probit low age lwt race smoke ptl ht ui
skprobit low age lwt race smoke ptl ht ui
The result shows that the Ho (Normality) hypothesis of the residuals is not rejected in this example. Hence the residuals are normal in this case.
webuse union
probit union age grade not_smsa
skprobit union age grade not_smsa
The result shows that the Ho (Normality) hypothesis of the residuals is rejected in this example. The residuals are not normal in this case.
