A Note on a Reformulation of the KHB Method
Breen, Richard; Bernt Karlson, Kristian; Holm, Anders
Sociological Methods & Research, v50 n2 p901-912 May 2021
The Karlson-Holm-Breen (KHB) method has rapidly become popular as a way of separating the impact of confounding from rescaling when comparing conditional and unconditional parameter estimates in nonlinear probability models such as the logit and probit. In this note, we show that the same estimates can be obtained in a somewhat different way to that advanced by Karlson, Holm, and Breen in their original article and implemented in the user-written "Stata" command "khb." While the KHB method and this revised KHB method both work by holding constant the residual variance of the model, the revised method makes comparisons across multiple nested models easier than the original method.
