Special-interest postestimation commands

These commands provide tools for diagnosing sensitivity to individual observations, analyzing residuals, and assessing specification.

dfbeta will calculate one, more than one, or all the DFBETAs after regress. Although predict will also calculate DFBETAs, predict can do this for only one variable at a time. dfbeta is a convenience tool for those who want to calculate DFBETAs for multiple variables. The names for the new variables created are chosen automatically and begin with the letters _dfbeta_.

estat hettest performs three versions of the Breusch-Pagan (1979) and Cook-Weisberg (1983) test for heteroskedasticity. All three versions of this test present evidence against the null hypothesis that t=0 in Var(e)=sigma^2 exp(zt). In the normal version, performed by default, the null hypothesis also includes the assumption that the regression disturbances are independent-normal draws with variance sigma^2. The normality assumption is dropped from the null hypothesis in the iid and fstat versions, which respectively produce score and F tests. If varlist is not specified, the fitted values are used for z. If varlist or the rhs option is specified, the variables specified are used for z.

estat imtest performs an information matrix test for the regression model and an orthogonal decomposition into tests for heteroskedasticity, skewness, and kurtosis due to Cameron and Trivedi (1990); White's test for homoskedasticity against unrestricted forms of heteroskedasticity (1980) is available as an option. White's test is usually similar to the first term of the Cameron-Trivedi decomposition.

estat ovtest performs two versions of the Ramsey (1969) regression specification-error test (RESET) for omitted variables. This test amounts to fitting y=xb+zt+u and then testing t=0. If the rhs option is not specified, powers of the fitted values are used for z. If rhs is specified, powers of the individual elements of x are used.

estat szroeter performs Szroeter's rank test for heteroskedasticity for each of the variables in varlist or for the explanatory variables of the regression if rhs is specified.

estat vif calculates the centered or uncentered variance inflation factors (VIFs) for the independent variables specified in a linear regression model.

acprplot graphs an augmented component-plus-residual plot (a.k.a. augmented partial residual plot) as described by Mallows (1986). This seems to work better than the component-plus-residual plot for identifying nonlinearities in the data.

avplot graphs an added-variable plot (a.k.a. partial-regression leverage plot, partial regression plot, or adjusted partial residual plot) after regress. indepvar may be an independent variable (a.k.a. predictor, carrier, or covariate) that is currently in the model or not.

avplots graphs all the added-variable plots in one image.

cprplot graphs a component-plus-residual plot (a.k.a. partial residual plot) after regress. indepvar must be an independent variable that is currently in the model.

lvr2plot graphs a leverage-versus-squared-residual plot (a.k.a. L-R plot).

rvfplot graphs a residual-versus-fitted plot, a graph of the residuals against the fitted values.

rvpplot graphs a residual-versus-predictor plot (a.k.a. independent variable plot or carrier plot), a graph of the residuals against the specified predictor.

Options for predict

+------+ ----+ Main +-------------------------------------------------------------

xb, the default, calculates the linear prediction.

residuals calculates the residuals.

score is equivalent to residuals in linear regression.

rstandard calculates the standardized residuals.

rstudent calculates the studentized (jackknifed) residuals.

cooksd calculates the Cook's D influence statistic (Cook 1977).

leverage or hat calculates the diagonal elements of the projection hat matrix.

pr(a,b) calculates Pr(a < xb + u < b), the probability that y|x would be observed in the interval (a,b).

a and b may be specified as numbers or variable names; lb and ub are variable names; pr(20,30) calculates Pr(20 < xb + u < 30); pr(lb,ub) calculates Pr(lb < xb + u < ub); and pr(20,ub) calculates Pr(20 < xb + u < ub).

a missing (a > .) means minus infinity; pr(.,30) calculates Pr(-infinity < xb + u < 30); pr(lb,30) calculates Pr(-infinity < xb + u < 30) in observations for which lb > . and calculates Pr(lb < xb + u < 30) elsewhere.

b missing (b > .) means plus infinity; pr(20,.) calculates Pr(+infinity > xb + u > 20); pr(20,ub) calculates Pr(+infinity > xb + u > 20) in observations for which ub > . and calculates Pr(20 < xb + u < ub) elsewhere.

e(a,b) calculates E(xb+u | a < xb+u < b), the expected value of y|x conditional on y|x being in the interval (a,b), meaning, y|x is censored. a and b are specified as they are for pr().

ystar(a,b) calculates E(y*), where y* = a if xb+u < a, y* = b if xb+u > b, and y* = xb+u otherwise, meaning y* is truncated. a and b are specified as they are for pr().

dfbeta(varname) calculates the DFBETA for varname, the difference between the regression coefficient when the jth observation is included and excluded, said difference being scaled by the estimated standard error of the coefficient. varname must have been included among the regressors in the previously fitted model. The calculation is automatically restricted to the estimation subsample.

stdp calculates the standard error of the prediction, which can be thought of as the standard error of the predicted expected value or mean for the observation's covariate pattern. The standard error of the prediction is also referred to as the standard error of the fitted value.

stdf calculates the standard error of the forecast, which is the standard error of the point prediction for 1 observation. It is commonly referred to as the standard error of the future or forecast value. By construction, the standard errors produced by stdf are always larger than those produced by stdp.

stdr calculates the standard error of the residuals.

covratio calculates COVRATIO (Belsley, Kuh, and Welsch 1980), a measure of the influence of the jth observation based on considering the effect on the variance-covariance matrix of the estimates. The calculation is automatically restricted to the estimation subsample.

dfits calculates DFITS (Welsch and Kuh 1977) and attempts to summarize the information in the leverage versus residual-squared plot into one statistic. The calculation is automatically restricted to the estimation subsample.

welsch calculates Welsch distance (Welsch 1982) and is a variation on dfits. The calculation is automatically restricted to the estimation subsample.

Syntax for dfbeta

dfbeta [indepvar [indepvar [...]]] [, stub(name)]

Menu

Statistics > Linear models and related > Regression diagnostics > Residual-versus-fitted plot

Option for dfbeta

stub(name) specifies the leading characters dfbeta uses to name the new variables to be generated. The default is stub(_dfbeta_).

Syntax for estat hettest

estat hettest [varlist] [, rhs [normal | iid | fstat] mtest[(spec)]]

Menu

Statistics > Postestimation > Reports and statistics

Options for estat hettest

rhs specifies that tests for heteroskedasticity be performed for the right-hand-side (explanatory) variables of the fitted regression model. The rhs option may be combined with a varlist.

normal, the default, causes estat hettest to compute the original Breusch-Pagan/Cook-Weisberg test, which assumes that the regression disturbances are normally distributed.

iid causes estat hettest to compute the N*R2 version of the score test, which drops the normality assumption.

fstat causes estat hettest to compute the F-statistic version, which drops the normality assumption.

mtest[(spec)] specifies that multiple testing be performed. The argument specifies how p-values are adjusted. The following specifications, spec, are supported:

bonferroni Bonferroni's multiple testing adjustment holm Holm's multiple testing adjustment sidak Sidak's multiple testing adjustment noadjust no adjustment is made for multiple testing

mtest may be specified without an argument. This is equivalent to specifying mtest(noadjust); that is, tests for the individual variables should be performed with unadjusted p-values. By default, estat hettest does not perform multiple testing. mtest may not be specified with iid or fstat.

Syntax for estat imtest

estat imtest [, preserve white]

Menu

Statistics > Postestimation > Reports and statistics

Options for estat imtest

preserve specifies that the data in memory be preserved, all variables and cases that are not needed in the calculations be dropped, and at the conclusion the original data be restored. This option is costly for large datasets. However, because estat imtest has to perform an auxiliary regression on k(k+1)/2 temporary variables, where k is the number of regressors, it may not be able to perform the test otherwise.

white specifies that White's original heteroskedasticity test also be performed.

Syntax for estat ovtest

estat ovtest [, rhs]

Menu

Statistics > Postestimation > Reports and statistics

Option for estat ovtest

rhs specifies that powers of the right-hand-side (explanatory) variables be used in the test rather than powers of the fitted values.

Syntax for estat szroeter

estat szroeter [varlist] [, rhs mtest(spec)]

Either varlist or rhs must be specified.

Menu

Statistics > Postestimation > Reports and statistics

Options for estat szroeter

rhs specifies that tests for heteroskedasticity be performed for the right-hand-side (explanatory) variables of the fitted regression model. The rhs option may be combined with a varlist.

mtest(spec) specifies that multiple testing be performed. The argument specifies how p-values are adjusted. The following specifications, spec, are supported:

bonferroni Bonferroni's multiple testing adjustment holm Holm's multiple testing adjustment sidak Sidak's multiple testing adjustment noadjust no adjustment is made for multiple testing

estat szroeter always performs multiple testing. By default, it does not adjust the p-values.

Syntax for estat vif

estat vif [, uncentered]

Menu

Statistics > Postestimation > Reports and statistics

Option for estat vif

uncentered requests the computation of the uncentered variance inflation factors. This option is often used to detect the collinearity of the regressors with the constant. estat vif, uncentered may be used after regression models fit without the constant term.
