Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After showing why ordinary regression analysis is not appropriate for investigating dichotomous or otherwise 'limited' dependent variables, this volume examines three techniques which are well suited for such data. It reviews the linear probability model and discusses alternative specifications of non-linear models.

Download or read book Probit Analysis written by David Finney and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-07-16 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1947, this classic study by D. J. Finney was the first to examine and explain a branch of statistical method widely used in connection with the biological assay of insecticides, fungicides, drugs, vitamins, etc. It standardized the computations and terminology and made its use easier for a biologist without statistical expertise, whilst also outlining the underlying mathematical theory. Finney had made several important contributions to the method in the past, and his own results are also included. The book contains a foreword by the influential insecticidal chemist Dr F. Tattersfield.
Download or read book Multinomial Probit written by Carlos Daganzo and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 1979-12-28 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multinomial Probit: The Theory and Its Application to Demand Forecasting covers the theoretical and practical aspects of the multinomial probit (MNP) model and its relation to other discrete choice models. This text is divided into five chapters and begins with an overview of the disaggregate demand modeling in the transportation field. The subsequent chapters examine the computational aspects of the maximum-likelihood estimation and the statistical aspects of MNP model calibration. These chapters specifically describe the properties of the log-likelihood function and the statistical properties of MNP estimators. These topics are followed by a discussion of the mechanical aspects of the MNP model. The closing chapter examines the errors in the estimation of the true parameter value due to lack of data and how these errors propagate to the final prediction. This book will prove useful to econometricians, engineers, and applied mathematicians.

Download or read book Interpreting and Comparing Effects in Logistic Probit and Logit Regression written by Jacques A. P. Hagenaars and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 2024-01-16 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Log-linear, logit and logistic regression models are the most common ways of analyzing data when (at least) the dependent variable is categorical. This volume shows how to compare coefficient estimates from regression models for categorical dependent variables in three typical research situations: (i) within one equation, (ii) between identical equations estimated in different subgroups, and (iii) between nested equations. Each of these three kinds of comparisons brings along its own particular form of comparison problems. Further, in all three areas, the precise nature of comparison problems in logistic regression depends on how the logistic regression model is looked at and how the effects of the independent variables are computed. This volume presents a practical, unified treatment of these problems, and considers the advantages and disadvantages of each approach, and when to use them, so that applied researchers can make the best choice related to their research problem. The techniques are illustrated with data from simulation experiments and from publicly available surveys. The datasets, along with Stata syntax, are available on a companion website at: https://study.sagepub.com/researchmethods/qass/hagenaars-interpreting-effects.
Download or read book Comparing the Performance of Logit and Probit Early Warning Systems for Currency Crises in Emerging Market Economies written by Mr.Fabio Comelli and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2014-04-17 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We compare how logit (fixed effects) and probit early warning systems (EWS) predict insample and out-of-sample currency crises in emerging markets (EMs). We look at episodes of currency crises that took place in 29 EMs between January 1995 and December 2012. Stronger real GDP growth rates and higher net foreign assets significantly reduce the probability of experiencing a currency crisis, while high levels of credit to the private sector increase it. We find that the logit and probit EWS out-of-sample performances are broadly similar, and that the EWS performance can be very sensitive both to the size of the estimation sample, and to the crisis definition employed. For macroeconomic policy purposes, we conclude that a currency crisis definition identifying more rather than less crisis episodes should be used, even if this may lead to the risk of issuing false alarms.

Download or read book Growth of GDP per capita and Democracy A Simultaneous Equation Generalized Probit Model written by Katharina Böhm-Klamt and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2017-12-18 with total page 39 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2015 in the subject Economics - Economic Cycle and Growth, grade: 1, Vienna University of Economics and Business (Institut für Makroökonomie), language: English, abstract: The paper examines a potential reverse causality between the growth of GDP per capita and Democracy (data from Policy IV project). Therefore, a simultaneous equation generalized probit model is used. In the first step, the model is estimated under the assumption that the relationship between economic growth and democracy is linear and in the second step under the assumption the relationship is quadratic. Additional exogenous variables are the degree of urbanization, the age of the regime and the percentage of non-fuel exports in total exports. Further, the influence of religion is taken into account, whereby religion and ethnicity are distinguished. It is observed that the ethnical fragmentation has the opposite effect of religious fragmentation. The outcomes suggest that economic growth and the degree of a country ́s democratization indeed are mutually dependent and should not be treated as independent. Additional the outcomes confirm the idea that the relationship between growth and democracy is quadratic.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the face of the ever-increasing importance of statistical methods in medical research and practice, the first edition of this publication has provided a sound and deep understanding of statistical methods in bioassay to many students and researchers. In addition to the profound presentation of statistical methods of the first edition, here the reader will find new material stemming from the recent statistical literature as well as data reflecting modern trends in general applied statistical research. Examples are discussions on design and planning, e.g. choices of dose levels, and additional section in the chapter on Bayes methods, and a new chapter on sequential estimation for the logistic model. The book will be a valuable source of information to students in the experimental area of statistical aspects of biological assay, professional statisticians with an interest in research in this topic, teachers in statistics and biology, and investigators in the biological and medical sciences who use bioassay in their work.
