Abstract: | The paper deals with parameter estimation and the testing of individual parameters in heteroskedastic Tobit models. The statistical properties of semiparametric and maximum likelihood estimators are evaluated. Correspondingt-test statistics are compared. Results from a Monte Carlo experiment indicate that the semiparametric estimator performs relatively better than the maximum likelihood estimator. The associatedt-test statistics appear to perform better than the corresponding maximum likelihood test statistics. *** DIRECT SUPPORT *** A06GP002 00008 |
