Hi,
any ideas how to validate the logit model in Stata? I have a received a comment that there is no tests or robustness checks to ensure the validity of the model. I did logit regression on a national representative survey (weighted) data and reported output which suggested that overall model is significant.
EDIT: If the data used is national representative, should the validation still been performed? Another thing: the purpose of the model is not prediction. As a result, should it be validated since I have done econometric analysis for specific country and the model could not be generalized for other countries where different predictors may be used.
Alternatively, is there a way to dispute the comment without doing the validation?
