Q: Consider the equation y = b0 + b1x + b2x2 +
Consider the equation y = b0 + b1x + b2x2 + u E(u|x) = 0, where the explanatory variable x has a standard normal distribution in the population. In particular, E(x) = 0, E(x2) = Var(x) = 1, and E(x3)...
See AnswerQ: If we start with (6.38) under the CLM
If we start with (6.38) under the CLM assumptions, assume large n, and ignore the estimation error in the ^j, a 95% prediction interval for y0 is [exp(-1.96^) exp(logy0) , exp(1.96^) exp(logy0)]. T...

Using the data in SLEEP75 (see also Problem 3 in Chapter 3), we obtain the estimated equation The variable sleep is total minutes per week spent sleeping at night, totwrk is total weekly minutes spent...
See AnswerQ: (i) In the context of potential outcomes with a sample
(i) In the context of potential outcomes with a sample of size n, let [yi(0), yi(1)] denote the pair of potential outcomes for unit i. Define the averages and define the sample average treatment effec...

Consider a model at the employee level, yi,e = 0 + 1xi,e,1 + 2xi,e,2 + . . . + kxi,e,k + fi + vi,e, where the unobserved variable fi is a “firm effect” to each employee at a given firm i. The erro...
See AnswerQ: Consider the potential outcomes framework, where w is a binary treatment
Consider the potential outcomes framework, where w is a binary treatment indicator and the potential outcomes are y(0) and y(1). Assume that w is randomly assigned, so that w is independent of [y(0),y...
