# statsmodels.regression.linear_model.OLSResults.el_test¶

OLSResults.el_test(b0_vals, param_nums, return_weights=0, ret_params=0, method='nm', stochastic_exog=1, return_params=0)[source]

Tests single or joint hypotheses of the regression parameters using Empirical Likelihood.

Parameters: b0_vals (1darray) – The hypothesized value of the parameter to be tested param_nums (1darray) – The parameter number to be tested print_weights (bool) – If true, returns the weights that optimize the likelihood ratio at b0_vals. Default is False ret_params (bool) – If true, returns the parameter vector that maximizes the likelihood ratio at b0_vals. Also returns the weights. Default is False method (string) – Can either be ‘nm’ for Nelder-Mead or ‘powell’ for Powell. The optimization method that optimizes over nuisance parameters. Default is ‘nm’ stochastic_exog (bool) – When TRUE, the exogenous variables are assumed to be stochastic. When the regressors are nonstochastic, moment conditions are placed on the exogenous variables. Confidence intervals for stochastic regressors are at least as large as non-stochastic regressors. Default = TRUE res – The p-value and -2 times the log-likelihood ratio for the hypothesized values. tuple
