Ch. 7 Violations of the ideal conditions 1 ST pecification 1.1 Selection of variables Consider a initial model. which we assume that Y=x1/1+E, It is not unusual to begin with some formulation and then contemplate adding more variable(regressors) to the model
Ch. 6 The Linear model under ideal conditions The(multiple) linear model is used to study the relationship between a dependent variable(Y) and several independent variables(X1, X2, ,Xk). That is ∫(X1,X2,…,Xk)+ E assume linear function 1X1+B2X2+…+6kXk+E xB+ where Y is the dependent or explained
Ch. 5 Hypothesis Testing The current framework of hypothesis testing is largely due to the work of Neyman and Pearson in the late 1920s, early 30s, complementing Fisher's work on estimation. As in estimation, we begin by postulating a statistical model but instead of seeking an estimator of 6 in e we consider the question whether
Ch. 3 Estimation 1 The Nature of statistical Inference It is argued that it is important to develop a mathematical model purporting to provide a generalized description of the data generating process. A prob bility model in the form of the parametric family of the density functions p=f(:0),0E e and its various ramifications formulated in last chapter
Ch. 24 Johansen's mle for Cointegration We have so far considered only single-equation estimation and testing for cointe- gration. While the estimation of single equation is convenient and often consis- tent, for some purpose only estimation of a system provides sufficient information This is true, for example, when we consider the estimation of multiple cointe- grating vectors, and inference about the number of such vectors. This chapter examines methods of finding the cointegrating rank and derive the asymptotic
