This dataset example introduces readers to probit regression. This technique allows researchers to evaluate whether a dichotomous dependent variable is a function of one or more independent variables. The probit model is most commonly estimated via maximum likelihood estimation (MLE). The probit model is similar in many ways to the logistic regression, or logit, model. While probit assumes a normal distribution and logit assumes a logistic distribution, the substantive results from estimating a logit versus a probit model are typically quite similar.
