Q: Suppose that a linear probability model is to be fit to a
Suppose that a linear probability model is to be fit to a set of observations on a dependent variable y that takes values zero and one, and a single regressor x that varies continuously across observa...
See AnswerQ: Given the data set / estimate a probit
Given the data set estimate a probit model and test the hypothesis that x is not influential in determining the probability that y equals one.
See AnswerQ: In Example 8.5, we have suggested a model of
In Example 8.5, we have suggested a model of a labor market. From the “reduced form” equation given first, you can see the full set of variables that appears in the model—that is the “endogenous varia...

The following hypothetical data give the participation rates in a particular type of recycling program and the number of trucks purchased for collection by 10 towns in a small mid-Atlantic state: Th...
See AnswerQ: A data set consists of n = n1 + n2 + n3
A data set consists of n = n1 + n2 + n3 observations on y and x. For the first n1 observations, y = 1 and x = 1. For the next n2 observations, y = 0 and x = 1. For the last n3 observations, y = 0 and...
See AnswerQ: In the panel data models estimated in section 17.7,
In the panel data models estimated in section 17.7, neither the logit nor the probit model provides a framework for applying a Hausman test to determine whether fixed or random effects is preferred. E...
