Questions and Answers

What are the consequences of positively autocorrelated error terms in a regression model?

  • s(bk) calculated according to ordinary least squares procedures may overestimate the true standard deviation of the estimated regression coefficient.
  • Estimated regression coefficients become biased and inefficient.
  • MSE may seriously overestimate the variance of the error terms.
  • Estimated regression coefficients are still unbiased, but may be quite inefficient. (correct)
  • What is a major cause of positively autocorrelated error terms in business and economic regression applications involving time series data?

  • Omission of one or several key variables from the model. (correct)
  • Inclusion of too many key variables in the model.
  • Using a different regression method.
  • Assuming independence of error terms.
  • What is the term used to describe error terms that are correlated over time in time series data?

  • Autocorrelated (correct)
  • Independent
  • Homoscedastic
  • Heteroscedastic
