A heteroskedasticity-consistent covariance matrix estimator and a direct test for heteroskedasticity

[PDF] from unimedia.ac.id
H White - Econometrica: Journal of the Econometric Society, 1980 - JSTOR
This paper presents a parameter covariance matrix estimator which is consistent even when
the disturbances of a linear regression model are heteroskedastic. This estimator does not
depend on a formal model of the structure of the heteroskedasticity. By comparing the ...

nonlinear setups with infinite dimensional unobservables like preferences. The main result
is that a generalized version of differencing identifies local average structural derivatives ( ...
