The censored normal regression model considered by Tobin (1958), also commonly known as the ‘tobit’ model, is the following: <math display='block'> <mrow> <msubsup> <mi>y</mi> <mi>i</mi> <mo>*</mo> </msubsup> <mo>=</mo><mi>β</mi><msub> <mi>x</mi> <mi>i</mi> </msub> <mo>+</mo><msub> <mi>u</mi> <mi>i</mi> </msub> <mo>.</mo><mtext> </mtext><msub> <mi>u</mi> <mi>i</mi> </msub> <mo>∼</mo><mi>I</mi><mi>N</mi><mo stretchy='false'>(</mo><mn>0</mn><mo>,</mo><msup> <mi>σ</mi> <mn>2</mn> </msup> <mo stretchy='false'>)</mo> </mrow> </math>$$y_i^* = \beta {x_i} + {u_i}.\quad {u_i} \sim IN(0,{\sigma ^2})$$ The observed y i are related to y i * according to the relationship (1)<math display='block'> <mtable columnalign='left'> <mtr> <mtd> <msub> <mi>y</mi> <mi>i</mi> </msub> <mo>=</mo><msubsup> <mi>y</mi> <mi>i</mi> <mo>*</mo> </msubsup> <mtext> </mtext><mi>i</mi><mi>f</mi><mtext> </mtext><msubsup> <mi>y</mi> <mi>i</mi> <mo>*</mo> </msubsup> <mo>></mo><msub> <mi>y</mi> <mn>0</mn> </msub> </mtd> </mtr> <mtr> <mtd> <mo>=</mo><msub> <mi>y</mi> <mn>0</mn> </msub> <mtext> </mtext><mtext> </mtext><mtext> </mtext><mi>o</mi><mi>t</mi><mi>h</mi><mi>e</mi><mi>r</mi><mi>w</mi><mi>i</mi><mi>s</mi><mi>e</mi> </mtd> </mtr> </mtable> </math>$$\eqalign{ & {y_i} = y_i^*\quad if\,y_i^* > {y_0} \cr & = {y_0}\quad \;\quad otherwise \cr} $$ where y0 is a prespecified constant (usually zero). The y i * could take values <y0. The only thing is that they are not observed. Thus, y i is set equal to y0 because of non-observability. The values x i are observed for all the observations. If both y i and x i are unobserved for y i ⩽ y0 then we have what is known as a truncated regression model.
