booltest {boolean}R Documentation

Boolean Logit/Probit Objects

Description

Boolean logit and probit procedures produce an object of class booltest. Such an object contains slots @Calculus, @LogLik, @Variables, @Coefficients, @StandardErrors, @Iterations, @Hessian, @Gradient, @Zscore, @Probz, @Conf95lo, @Conf95hi, @pstructure, and @method (note that some slots may be left empty if the relevant information is not furnished by the maximizer).

A booltest object may be summarized using summary(). More detailed output can be obtained by show(). The specialized functions boolfirst and boolprof produce plots of first differences and profile likelihoods, respectively.

In addition, plot() produces a matrix of plots. plot() takes a single argument, panel, that determines whether the matrix consists of first differences (panel="boolfirst") or profile likelihoods (panel="boolprof"). The default is first differences.
