Statistical Inference
The Breusch-Pagan Test is a statistical test used to detect heteroscedasticity in a regression model. It assesses whether the variance of the residuals from a regression analysis is constant across all levels of the independent variable(s). This is crucial in econometrics and financial modeling because failing to address heteroscedasticity can lead to inefficient estimates and invalid inference.
