Name

hetero_sq0 — Xiª heteroskedasticity test

CALLING SEQUENCE

[f,f_pvalue,nvar2]=hetero_sq0(r,np)

PARAMETERS

Input

• r = results tlist from a first stage estimation

• np = unused argument put for compatibility with other testing functions

Output

• f = value of the Xiª hetero F test

• f_pvalue = its p-value

DESCRIPTION

Computes the value of the Xiª hetero test. Results are stored as numbers and are not displayed on screen.

EXAMPLE


load(GROCERDIR+'data/bdhenderic.dat');
bounds('1964q3','1989q2');
rols=ols('delts(lm1-lp)','delts(lp)','delts(lagts(1,lm1-lp-ly))','rnet', 'lagts(1,lm1-lp-ly)', 'const');
//performs ols for Hendry and Ericsson (1991) equation n° 6 
[f,f_pvalue,nvar2]=hetero_sq0(rols)
 
// Useful mainly for programming purpose (since hetero_sq does much more).
