A simulation study designed to evaluate the pseudo-R2 proposed by Spiess and Keller (1999) suggests that this measure represents the goodness-of-fit not only of the systematic part, but also of the assumed correlation structure in binary panel probit models.

We describe how to recursively simulate choice probabilities in the multiperiod multinomial probit model using the GHK algorithm. We also provide GAUSS code to implement the method.

The paper compares two approaches to the estimation of panel probit models: the Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) and the Simulated Maximum Likelihood (SML) technique. Both have in common that they circumvent multiple integrations of joint density functions without the need to impose...

Consideration of latent heterogeneity is of special importance in non linear models for gauging correctly the effect of explaining variables on the dependent variable. This paper adopts the stratified model-based clustering approach for modeling latent heterogeneity for panel probit models....

In this paper R2-type measures of the explanatory power of multivariate linear and categorical probit models proposed in the literature are reviewed and their deficiencies are discussed. It is argued that a measure of the explanatory power should take into account the components which are...
