RE: st: comparing probit coefficients across two groups

Allison's (1999) paper can answer the question of e.g. is the effect of education on income greater for men than it is for women?. But when I read the paper titled "Using Heterogeneous Choice Models To Compare Logit and Probit Coefficients Across Groups" (Williams, 2009) do you think it also focuses on comparison of coefficients across groups?
