I hope you're well. I'm currently working with the eprobit model in Stata and have two questions I was hoping to get your guidance on:
- I'm trying to present the endogeneity test for the full model. I understand that the correlations among the error terms are used for this, but I'm not entirely sure how to properly test and report endogeneity for the entire system. Could you please clarify the correct approach?
- My second question is about instrument specification. In eprobit, should all instrumental variables be included in each first-stage equation (similar to 2SLS), or should I only include the instruments that are relevant for each specific endogenous regressor?
