The Tobit Model • The estimated tobit coefficients are the marginal effects of a change in xj on y*, the unobservable latent variable and can be interpreted p in the same way y as in a linear regression model. • But such an interpretation may not be useful since we are interested in the effect of X on the observable y (or change in the censored outcome). – It can bbe shown h th that t change h iin y iis found f d by b multiplying lti l i the coefficient with Pr(a
