Hi Bitty,
Coefficients in probit models can be greater than one, this is not a
problem. Marginal effects, on the other hand, should intuitively be
less than (or equal to) one but it can happen in practice that they
are not. The following FAQ explains:

Hope this helps.

Dear Sir/Madame,
I am a postgraduate student at Addis Ababa University,
Ethiopia.
I was running my data for my thesis and found out that
one of my variables for the probit model has a
coefficient greater than one? Is it possible? If it is
not, how can I correct it.
Thank you.
B
Bitty
