We propose two new residuals for the class of beta regression models, and numerically evaluate their behaviour relative to the residuals proposed by Ferrari and Cribari-Neto. Monte Carlo simulation results and empirical applications using real and simulated data are provided. The results favour...

This paper proposes a regression model where the response is beta distributed using a parameterization of the beta law that is indexed by mean and dispersion parameters. The proposed model is useful for situations where the variable of interest is continuous and restricted to the interval (0, 1)...

The commonly made assumption that all stochastic error terms in the linear regression model share the same variance (homoskedasticity) is oftentimes violated in practical applications, especially when they are based on cross-sectional data. As a precaution, a number of practitioners choose to...
