noconst | Do not include a constant in the instrumental list. Without this option, a constant will always be included as an instrument, even if not specified explicitly. |
w=arg | Weight series or expression. |
wtype=arg (default=“istdev”) | Weight specification type: inverse standard deviation (“istdev”), inverse variance (“ivar”), standard deviation (“stdev”), variance (“var”). |
wscale=arg | Weight scaling: EViews default (“eviews”), average (“avg”), none (“none”). The default setting depends upon the weight type: “eviews” if “wtype=istdev”, “avg” for all others. |
kclass=number | Set the value of  in the K‑class estimator. If omitted, LIML is performed, and  is calculated as part of the estimation procedure. |
se = arg (default=“iv”) | Set the standard-error calculation type: IV based (“se=iv”), K-Class based (“se=kclass”), Bekker (“se=bekk”), or Hansen, Hausman, and Newey (“se=hhn”). |
m=integer | Set maximum number of iterations. |
c=number | Set convergence criterion. The criterion is based upon the maximum of the percentage changes in the scaled coefficients. The criterion will be set to the nearest value between 1e-24 and 0.2. |
numericderiv / ‑numericderiv | [Do / do not] use numeric derivatives only. If omitted, EViews will follow the global default. |
fastderiv / ‑fastderiv | [Do / do not] use fast derivative computation. If omitted, EViews will follow the global default. Available only for legacy estimation (“optmeth=legacy”). |
showopts / ‑showopts | [Do / do not] display the starting coefficient values and estimation options in the estimation output. |
coef=arg | Specify the name of the coefficient vector (if specified by list); the default behavior is to use the “C” coefficient vector. |
prompt | Force the dialog to appear from within a program. |
p | Print estimation results. |
