I am applying guantile regression for my data-set (using R). It is easy to produce the nice scatterplot-image with different quantile regression lines (taus <- c(0.05,0.25,0.75,0.95)).
Problem occurs when I want to produce p-values (in order to see statistical significance of each regression line) for each one of these quantiles. For median quantile (tau=0.5) this is not problematic, but when it comes to for example tau=0.25, I get following error message:
>QRmodel<-rq(y~x,tau=0.25,model=T)
>summary(QRmodel,se="nid")
Error in summary.rq(QRmodel, se = "nid") : tau - h < 0: error in summary.rq
What could be the reason for this?
Also: Is it recommendable to mention p-values and coefficients regarding the results of quantile regression model or could it be enough to show just the plot-picture and discuss the results based on that picture?
Best regards, frustrated person
