1 ECON 5 -- NOE 15 Margnal Effects n Probt Models: Interpretaton and estng hs note ntroduces you to the two types of margnal effects n probt models: margnal ndex effects, and margnal probablty effects. It demonstrates how to calculate these effects for both contnuous and categorcal explanatory varables. A Generc Probt Model 1. Interpretng Probt Coeffcents he conventonal formulaton of a bnary dependent varable model assumes that an unobserved (or latent) dependent varable Y s generated by a classcal lnear regresson model of the form Y x + u u (1) where: k Y a contnuous real-valued ndex varable for observaton that s unobservable, or latent; x ( 1 1 k ), a 1 K row vector of regressor values for observaton ; 0 1 k ) (, a K 1 column vector of regresson coeffcents; x a 1 1 scalar called the ndex functon for observaton ; u an d N(0, σ ) random error term for observaton. k ECON 5 -- Note 15: Flename 5note15_sldes.doc Page 1 of 1 pages
2 he observable outcomes of the bnary choce problem are represented by a bnary ndcator varable Y that s related to the unobserved dependent varable Y as follows: Y 1 f Y 0 f Y > 0 (.1) Y 0 (.) he random ndcator varable Y represents the observed realzatons of a bnomal process wth the followng probabltes: > Pr( Y 1) Pr(Y > 0) Pr(x + u 0) (3.1) Pr( Y 0) Pr(Y 0) Pr(x + u 0) (3.) Probt models analytcally represent the bnomal probabltes (3.1) and (3.) n terms of the standard normal Φ Z as follows: c.d.f. ( ) ( x ) Φ( x ) Pr( Y 1) Pr(Y > 0) Φ (.1) Pr( Y 0) Pr(Y 0) 1 (.)

4 . wo ypes of Margnal Effects n Probt Models For each explanatory varable, there are two types of margnal effects n bnary dependent varables models. Margnal Index Effects Margnal ndex effects are the partal effects of each explanatory varable on the probt ndex functon x. Case 1: j s a contnuous explanatory varable margnal ndex effect of varable j E ( Y x ) j j Case : j s a bnary explanatory varable (a dummy or ndcator varable) he margnal ndex effect of a bnary explanatory varable equals 1. the value of the ndex functon x when j 1 and the other regressors equal specfed fxed values mnus. the value of the ndex functon x when j 0 and the other regressors equal the same fxed values ECON 5 -- Note 15: Flename 5note15_sldes.doc Page of 1 pages
5 Case : j s a bnary explanatory varable (a dummy or ndcator varable) Formal Defnton: Defne two dfferent vectors of regressor values n whch all explanatory varables except j are held constant at fxed values: 1 0 x any vector of regressor values wth j 1 (and all other explanatory varables equal to fxed values); x the same vector of regressor values but wth j 0. he margnal ndex effect of the bnary (dummy) varable j s: margnal ndex effect of j E( Y 1, h j) E( Y 0, h j) j 1 x0 x h 0h Lmtaton: Margnal ndex effects are dffcult to nterpret because t s dffcult to nterpret and mpossble to measure the latent dependent varable Y. j h 0h ECON 5 -- Note 15: Flename 5note15_sldes.doc Page 5 of 1 pages
6 Margnal Probablty Effects Margnal probablty effects are the partal effects of each explanatory varable on the probablty that the observed dependent varable Y 1, where n probt models Pr( Y 1) Φ( ) x standard normal c.d.f. evaluated at x. Case 1: j s a contnuous explanatory varable margnal probablty effect of varable j Pr ( Y 1 ) Φ( x ) j Usng the chan rule of dfferentaton, we can obtan a general expresson for the margnal probablty effect of a contnuous explanatory varable j : j margnal probablty effect of j where d Φ ( ) ( x ) x Φ ( x ) d Φ( x ) x φ( x ) j d (x ) j x φ the value of the standard normal p.d.f. at x. d (x ) j the margnal ndex effect of j j ECON 5 -- Note 15: Flename 5note15_sldes.doc Page of 1 pages
