hi,
first let me say that looking into the issue of heteroskedasticity in a
binary-choice (probit/logit) setup, I found two existing function
packages, namely HIP by Jack and Claudia, and LOGIT_HETERO by Artur.
This is showing the great evolution of gretl in connection with
user-contributed stuff. (Although Jack probably doesn't really qualify
as a "user" in this sense, but anyway.)
Ok, now I've also noticed that the 'logit' and 'probit' commands offer
a
--robust option. However, I wonder whether this is really sensible,
because we all know that estimates are inconsistent under
heteroskedasticity here. Perhaps this has been discussed before, does it
serve a pedagogical purpose or am I missing something?
thanks,
sven
