\title{Hansen--Sargan Test of Overidentifying Restrictions}
\usage{
sargan(object, weights = c("twosteps", "onestep"))
}
\arguments{
\item{object}{an object of class \code{"pgmm"},}
\item{weights}{the weighting matrix to be used for the computation of the
test.}
}
\value{
An object of class \code{"htest"}.
}
\description{
A test of overidentifying restrictions for models estimated by GMM.
}
\details{
The Hansen--Sargan test ("J test") calculates the quadratic form of the moment
restrictions that is minimized while computing the GMM estimator. It follows
asymptotically a chi-square distribution with number of degrees of freedom
equal to the difference between the number of moment conditions and the
number of coefficients.
