Refer to the log-likelihood function for the baseline-category logit model (Section 7.14). Denote the sufficient statistics by npj = ∑i yij and Sjk = ∑i xik yij, j = 1,... J – 1,...,p. Let S = (S11,...,S1t,...SJ1,...,SJt)’. Condition on ∑i yij, j = 1,...,J. Under the null hypothesis that explanatory variables have no effect, show that E(S) = n(p ⨂ m), var(S) = n(V ⨂ ∑) where p = (p1,....,pJ)’; m = (x̅1,....,x̅t)’, where x̅k = (∑i xik)/n; ∑ has elements (S2), where S2 = [∑i(xik – x̅k)(x – x̅υ)]/(n – 1); V has elements υii = pi(1 – pi) and υij = –pi pj, and ⨂ denotes the Kronecker product (Zelen 1991).
