Hello,

I am estimating a multinomial probit for a selection equation with 3 choices and I am interested in using the inverse mills ratio generated from the MNP in a second step equation. I know how to implement this procedure, however, I have not been able to find any literature that proves that the Heckman two-step estimation procedure can appropriately and directly extend from a probit selection equation to a multinomial probit selection equation. Does anyone know of any papers that address this issue?

Thanks,
Stephen
