Thanks for your reply, Johan. Gibbons, Ross, & Shanken (1989) show that using a Wald chi-square statistic to test the joint hypothesis that all intercepts equal zero can lead to over-rejection of the null (Type I error). Is this reference you posted simply suggesting that I divide my chi-square statistic by the degrees of freedom to arrive at the F-statistic?

Thanks again,
Jared

It sounds to me that you could use 'test' or 'testparm' to test if the
intercepts, a1...a10, are jointly equal to zero.
