Robust vce for heckman estimators
When using function heckit() from package ‘sampleSelection’, is there anyway to make t-tests for the coefficients using robust covariance matrix estimator? By “robust” I mean something like if a had an object ‘lm’ called “reg” and then used: > coeftest(reg, vcov = vcovHC(reg)). I’m asking this because in Stata we could use function heckman and then use vce option “robust”. We could do the

...useful addition to "datasets". For example a more granular version of the "Titanic" data (in addition to the 4-way tabel ?Titanic). Or another relatively straightforward data set, popular in econometrics and social sciences is the "Mroz" data, see e.g., help("PSID1976", package = "AER"). I would be happy to help with these if such additions were considered for datasets/stats. On Sat, 15 Dec 2018, David Hugh-Jones wrote: > I would argue examples should encourage good practice.

FWIW, before all the examples are changed to data frame variants, I think there's fairly good reason to have at least _one_ example that does _not_ place variables in a data frame. The data argument in lm() is optional. And there is more than one way to manage data in a project. I personally don't much like lots of stray variables lurking about, but if those are the only variables out
