Hi,
I need to test differences in R-squares obtained from two ordinary least square regressions estimated by using the same sample of observations. For instance, I want to compare R-square of the following two regressions:
P=EARN+BV to
P=ADJEARN + ADJBV
where P is stock price, EARN is accounting earnings, BV is book value of equity and ADJ means adjusted. In the literature, the Vuong test is frequently been used to test differences in R-square (Vuong, Q. H: Likelihood Ratio Tests for Model Selection and Non-nested Hypothesis, Econometrica, Vol 57, No 2, 1989, pp 307-333). My questions are:
Is it possible to perform the Vuong test using commands in STATA?
If it is possible, what commands should I type?
Are there other tests available for differences in R-squares?
Any help is highly appreciated.
Best regards
Tonny
