Dear Statalist,

I'm trying to detect multicollinearity in a dataset with binary
predictors. I have suggestions that VIF works just fine in this
situation but when I see the formula VIF=1/(1-R^2) I am not convinced.
Does anyone have any insight here?

I am not sure why you are not convinced, but if you want a few more measures try Phil Ender's -collin- command, available from the UCLA site.
