WHITETST: Stata module to perform White's test for heteroskedasticity

Christopher Baum and Nicholas Cox

Statistical Software Components from Boston College Department of Economics

Abstract: whitetst computes White's test for heteroskedasticity following regress or cnsreg. This test is a special case of the Breusch-Pagan test (q.v. bpagan). The White test does not require specification of a list of variables, as that list is constructed from the regressor list. Alternatively, whitetst can perform a specialized form of the test which economizes on degrees of freedom. This is version 1.2.3 of the software, revised from that published in STB-55.
