330—Chapter 27. Generalized Linear Models
The entries for “LR statistic” and “Prob(LR statistic)” reported in the output are the corresponding x2k – 1 likelihood ratio tests for the constant only null against the alternative given by the estimated equation. They are the analogues to the “F-statistics” results reported in EViews least squares estimation. As with the latter F-statistics, the test entries will not be reported if the estimated equation does not contain an intercept.
