Estimation of Multivariate Probit Models via Bivariate Probit [PDF]
The Stata Journal, 2016 In this article, I suggest the utility of fitting multivariate probit models using a chain of bivariate probit estimators. This approach is based on Stata's biprobit and suest commands and is driven by a Mata function, bvpmvp(). I discuss two potential advantages of the approach over the mvprobit command (Cappellari and Jenkins, 2003, Stata Journal 3 ...

Marginal Effects in Multivariate Probit Models. [PDF]
Empir Econ, 2017 Estimation of marginal or partial effects of covariates x on various conditional parameters or functionals is often a main target of applied microeconometric analysis. In the specific context of probit models, estimation of partial effects involving outcome probabilities will often be of interest. Such estimation is straightforward in univariate models,

Multivariate Probit Regression using Simulated Maximum Likelihood [PDF]
The Stata Journal, 2003 We discuss the application of the GHK simulation method for maximum likelihood estimation of the multivariate probit regression model and describe and illustrate a Stata program mvprobit for this purpose.

Dynamics of multiple sustainable agricultural intensification practices adoption: Application of the intertemporal multivariate probit model. [PDF]
PLoS ONEApplying an intertemporal multivariate probit model, we reveal complex complementarity and substitution effects as well as new insights on the drivers of adopting input-intensive and natural resource management (NRM) practices in rural Ethiopia.

Farmers’ choice of varieties and demand for improved cassava stems in Nigeria
International Journal of Agricultural Research, Innovation and Technology, 2021 In this study, we used a household level survey to assess choices of varieties and demand for improved cassava varieties. A multivariate probit model was used to examine the determinants of choice decisions of the farmers for different varieties ...
