}Quasi-complete separation is a commonly detected issue in logit/probit models. Quasi-complete separation occurs when the dependent variable separates an independent variable or a combination of several independent variables to a certain degree. In other words, levels in a categorical variable or values in numeric variable are separated by groups in a discrete outcome variable. Most of the time, it happens in categorical independent variable(s). Quasi-complete separation can cause convergence… CONTINUE READING
