| 1. Multiple Linear Regression a. formulate a multiple regression equation to describe the relation between a dependent variable and several independent variables and determine the statistical significance of each independent variable; b. interpret estimated regression coefficients and their p-values; | |
| 2. Testing the Significance of a Regression Coefficient c. formulate a null and an alternative hypothesis about the population value of a regression coefficient, calculate the value of the test statistic, and determine whether to reject the null hypothesis at a given level of significance; d. interpret the results of hypothesis tests of regression coefficients; | |
| 3. Confidence Intervals for Regression Coefficients in a Multiple Regression e. calculate and interpret 1) a confidence interval for the population value of a regression coefficient and 2) a predicted value for the dependent variable, given an estimated regression model and assumed values for the independent variables; | |
| 4. The Standard Error of Estimate in Multiple Linear Regression Model e. calculate and interpret 1) a confidence interval for the population value of a regression coefficient and 2) a predicted value for the dependent variable, given an estimated regression model and assumed values for the independent variables; | |
| 5. Predicting the Dependent Variable in a Multiple Regression Model e. calculate and interpret 1) a confidence interval for the population value of a regression coefficient and 2) a predicted value for the dependent variable, given an estimated regression model and assumed values for the independent variables; | |
| 6. Assumptions of the Multiple Linear Regression Model f. explain the assumptions of a multiple regression model; | |
| 7. Testing Whether All Population Regression Coefficients are Equal to Zero g. calculate and interpret the F-statistic, and describe how it is used in regression analysis; | |
| 8. Is R2 Related to Statistical Significance? h. distinguish between and interpret the R2 and adjusted R2 in multiple regression; i. evaluate how well a regression model explains the dependent variable by analyzing the output of the regression equation and an ANOVA table; | |
| 9. Using Dummy Variables in Regressions j. formulate a multiple regression equation by using dummy variables to represent qualitative factors and interpret the coefficients and regression results; | |
| 10. Heteroskedasticity k. explain the types of heteroskedasticity and how heteroskedasticity and serial correlation affect statistical inference; | |
| 11. Serial Correlation k. explain the types of heteroskedasticity and how heteroskedasticity and serial correlation affect statistical inference; | |
| 12. The Durbin-Watson Statistic k. explain the types of heteroskedasticity and how heteroskedasticity and serial correlation affect statistical inference; | |
| 13. Multicollinearity l. describe multicollinearity and explain its causes and effects in regression analysis; | |
| 14. Model Specification and Errors in Specification m. describe how model misspecification affects the results of a regression analysis and describe how to avoid common forms of misspecification; | |
| 15. Models with Qualitative Dependent Variables n. describe models with qualitative dependent variables; | |
| 16. The Economic Meaning of the Results of Multiple Regression Analysis o. evaluate and interpret a multiple regression model and its results; |
I was very pleased with your notes and question bank. I especially like the mock exams because it helped to pull everything together.
