Develops a specification error test sensitive to negelected heterogeneity, which is viewed as causing parameter variation, by deriving a score test of the hypothesis that parameters have zero variance. The test turns out to be the Information Matrix test and is a useful diagnostic for researchers using cross-sectional or longitudinal data to estimate models of individual economic agents behavior. -from Author specification error neglected heterogeneity parameter variation Information Matrix test
