Hm.  I downloaded the helpful paper Stas Kolenikov pointed to the other
day (http://www.citeulike.org/user/ctacmo/article/890474) so there is
every chance I will have a notion of what LaGrange Multipliers are,
before long :-)

LR and Wald tests are easy to do in Stata. I am curious why LM/Score tests are not better supported (assuming they aren't). Are they harder to program? Is there little demand for them? There is an old user-written command called -testomit- which you can get with -findit-, but its capabilities seem limited.

UCLA has some FAQs on LR, Wald & LM:
