Dear all,
When performing IIA test manually as described in Applied Choice Analysis, I
get a negative test statistic :
MATRIX ; list ; q=bn'*vninv*bn$
Matrix Q has 1 rows and 1 columns.
1
+--------------
1| -25.75191
--> Calc ; list ; p=1-chi(q,6) $
Error 471: Cannot compute CHI; parameter 1 is < = 0
Error 116: CALC - Unable to compute result. Check earlier message
The Calc won't work, but there is no reason to reject the IIA assumption
because the critical value for the test is >0 so any negative q is ok., am I
right?
How can I calculate the p-value, then?
Or is negative q an incorrect output?
Hope it's not a stupid question, I'm still learning to use nlogit ...
Comments will be much appreciated.
Aleks
