class statsmodels.nonparametric.kernel_regression.TestRegCoefD(model, test_vars, nboot=400, nested_res=400, pivot=False)[source]

Significance test for the categorical variables in a nonparametric regression.

Parameters:

model: Instance of KernelReg class

This is the nonparametric regression model whose elements are tested for significance.

test_vars: tuple, list of one element

index of position of the discrete variable to be tested for significance. E.g. (3) tests variable at position 3 for significance.

nboot: int

Number of bootstrap samples used to determine the distribution of the test statistic in a finite sample. Default is 400

Notes

This class currently doesn’t allow joint hypothesis. Only one variable can be tested at a time
