The Binary Logit Model Definition Characteristics Estimation 0

Formulating the model The mathematical form is determined by the assumptions made regarding the error component. First example: The Linear Model 1

The Linear Model 2

The assumption leading to the logit model: – The error components are extreme-value (or Gumbel) distributed – The error components are identically and independently distributed (iid) across alternatives – The error components are iid across observatins/indivudals 3

Probit and Logit Most common assumption for error distribution is the normal distribution. Such assumptions lead to the Probit model. However this lead to some numerical difficulties. The Gumbel distribution closely approximates the normal distribution and has computational advantages. 4
