binary dependent variable modes, deviance

[maxchen]

the currently EV71 report deviance for binary model

Code: Select all

%ex7 = "\Example Files\EV7 Manual Data" %ch26 = "\Chapter 26 - Discrete and Limited Dependent Variable Models" %wf = @evpath + %ex7 +%ch26 +"\binary.wf1" wfopen %wf equation eq01.binary grade c gpa tuce psi

in the output, the "Deviance", and "Restr. deviance" are not document in the manual, what are they?

We added them to the binary models when we added them to the EViews 7 GLM estimator. The screen-shots for binary weren't redone. I'll put this on the list of things for the next manual.

Look in the GLM chapter for discussion. Or even better, a real reference such as Agresti, or Nelder and McCullagh.
