Why is there heteroskedasticity even though no relationship seems present in the residual plot?
I estimated a random effects panel model and performed the Breusch-Pagan (BP) test for heteroskedasticity. The test is significant, meaning that there is heteroskedasticity. However, the residual plot ...
