In statistics, a sequence of random variables is homoscedastic (/ ˌhoʊmoʊskəˈdæstɪk /) if all its random variables have the same finite variance; this is also known as homogeneity of variance. The complementary notion is called heteroscedasticity, also known as heterogeneity of variance. The spellings homoskedasticity and ...

The topic of heteroskedasticity-consistent (HC) standard errors arises in statistics and econometrics in the context of linear regression and time series analysis. These are also known as heteroskedasticity-robust standard errors (or simply robust standard errors), Eicker–Huber–White standard errors (also Huber–White standard errors or ...
The two regression lines are those estimated by ordinary least squares (OLS) and by robust MM-estimation. The analysis was performed in R using software made available by Venables and Ripley (2002). The two regression lines appear to be very similar (and this is not unusual in a data set of this size).
White test is a statistical test that establishes whether the variance of the errors in a regression model is constant: that is for homoskedasticity. This test, and an estimator for heteroscedasticity-consistent standard errors, were proposed by Halbert White in 1980. [1] These methods have become widely used, making this paper one of the most ...
Weighted least squares (WLS), also known as weighted linear regression, [1][2] is a generalization of ordinary least squares and linear regression in which knowledge of the unequal variance of observations (heteroscedasticity) is incorporated into the regression. WLS is also a specialization of generalized least squares, when all the off ...
Goldfeld–Quandt test. A parametric test for equal variance can be visualized by indexing the data by some variable, removing data points in the center and comparing the mean deviations of the left and right side. In statistics, the Goldfeld–Quandt test checks for heteroscedasticity in regression analyses. It does this by dividing a dataset ...
In statistics, the Breusch–Pagan test, developed in 1979 by Trevor Breusch and Adrian Pagan, [1] is used to test for heteroskedasticity in a linear regression model. It was independently suggested with some extension by R. Dennis Cook and Sanford Weisberg in 1983 (Cook–Weisberg test). [2] Derived from the Lagrange multiplier test principle ...
