Estimation of Multivariate Probit Models via Bivariate Probit [PDF]
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:

Mixture of normals probit models [PDF]
This paper generalizes the normal probit model of dichotomous choice by introducing mixtures of normals distributions for the disturbance term. By mixing on both the mean and variance parameters and by increasing the number of distributions in the mixture these models effectively remove the normality assumption and are much closer to semiparametric ...

Objective Bayesian Inference in Probit Models with Intrinsic Priors Using Variational Approximations
There is not much literature on objective Bayesian analysis for binary classification problems, especially for intrinsic prior related methods. On the other hand, variational inference methods have been employed to solve classification problems using ...

Child poverty and its determinants; the case of Negele Arsi Woreda, Oromia regional state, Ethiopia
Child poverty is widespread and anticipated to endure in the future, particularly in developing countries. By 2030, it is predicted that a considerable number of children would be living in poverty. As a result, addressing child poverty is a top priority

Endogeneity in Probit Response Models [PDF]
We look at conventional methods for removing endogeneity bias in regression models, including the linear model and the probit model. It is known that the usual Heckman two-step procedure should not be used in the probit model: from a theoretical perspective, it is unsatisfactory, and likelihood methods are superior.
