Abstract
:
Univariate probit and logit models are members of the family of generalized linear models (GLM), and analyze the relationship between regressors and binary response variable. The question of which model performs better is important, and the answer was achieved using a Monte Carlo simulation to compare both the univariate probit and logit models under different conditions. A bivariate probit model is frequently used in health economics, as its recursive form is practical when estimating the effect of binary endogenous (treatment) variable in a binary response model that is not suitable for univariate probit and logit models. Endogeneity can be controlled using a recursive bivariate probit model, which is completed by assuming that the structure errors of the model follow a standard bivariate Gaussian (Normal) distribution with correlation θ. The limitation of this model is its inability to deal with non-Gaussian dependencies between the treatment and response equations, and this is addressed by using a copula bivariate probit (CBP) model. This thesis will focus on the difference between probit and logit models in univariate case. In bivariate case, simulation has been applied to compare Gaussian, FGM and Frank copulas with symmetric dependency that are widely-used and well-known among copula researchers.
