Study Notes
Self-Assessment
- The variable on the right-hand side of a linear regression is sometimes called an explanatory variable.
- The variable on the left-hand side of a linear regression is not called a regressor.
- When computing regression parameters using Ordinary Least Squares (OLS), the squared horizontal distances between the model's predictions and the dependent variable values are minimized.
- OLS selects parameters that minimize the sum of squared residuals.
- The sample regression function includes a disturbance term.
- A non-linear model that cannot be transformed into a linear model cannot be estimated using OLS.
- The Classical Linear Regression Model (CLRM) assumes the variance of error terms is not zero.
- The CLRM assumes errors are normally distributed.
- If CLRM assumptions hold, OLS estimators are Best Linear Unbiased Estimators (BLUE).
- Consistency is a weaker condition than unbiasedness.
- The standard error of the slope parameter is the square root of its variance.
Exercises 1
- Calculate arithmetic sample mean and sample variance for x and y data.
- Compute the sample covariance and sample correlation between x and y. Sample covariance = −15.1778.
- Calculate sample correlation coefficient, rxy = −0.9610.
Exercises 1 (cont.)
- Determine the sample regression function using formulas.
- Sample regression function: ŷ = 62.689 - 5.3676x.
- Use the formula involving sample covariance and sample variance. This gives the same beta coefficient as the previous method.
Exercises 2
- Explain the difference between sample and population regression functions using equations.
- Sample regression function describes the relationship between variables estimated from samples.
- Population regression function represents the true but unknown relationship between variables within the entire population.
Exercises 3
- Identify models that can be estimated using OLS (ordinary least squares).
- Models that are linear in parameters are suitable for OLS estimation. Linearization is possible in some cases for models that are not already explicitly linear in the parameters.
Exercises 4
- Null hypothesis (H0): Beta = 1.
- Alternative hypothesis (H1): Beta > 1.
- Evaluate test statistic to determine whether beta equals 1 given the data or whether to reject in favor of beta greater than 1.
- The test statistic (2.682) is greater than the critical t-value (1.671). Reject the null hypothesis.
Exercises 5
- Null hypothesis (H0): Beta = 0.
- Alternative hypothesis (H1): Beta ≠ 0.
- Evaluate test statistic to determine whether beta equals 0 given the data.
- Since test statistic is not in the rejection region, fail to reject the null hypothesis.
Exercises 6
- Form and interpret 95% and 99% confidence intervals for Beta based on calculated data.
Additional Information
- Hypothesis tests are about actual, not estimated coefficients.
