Wald test for logit model

[Rodrigo Badilla]

Hi all.

I am a little bit confused about a test post estimation, wald test, for a logit model in stata.

I knew that wald test I used for linear model. For this reason I could not use command: test or testparm.

In some examples from this forum used booth for no línear model.

Maybe is not better use testnl?

A Wald test as performed by test is perfectly acceptable for linear and non-linear models, it is a test for linear combinations of coefficients. testnl performs a test for non-linear combinations of coefficients. This can make sense in both linear and non-linear models.

So you can use both tests in both models.

Thanks Maarten for you reply.
