R2 = Coefficient of determination.
D.W. statistic = Durbin-Watson statistic. For an explanation of the Durbin-Watson statistic, see J. Johnston and J. Dinardo, Econometric Methods,
New York: McGraw-Hill, 1996.
Where:
AGE(age) = Age-specific intercept term.
LNYPDNBNH = Log of Black per capita disposable income in current dollars.
NOTE: The regression method used to estimate the full-time and part-time equations was the pooled seemingly unrelated regression method. The
time period used to estimate the equations is from 1980 to 2005. The number of observations is 286. For additional information, see M. D.
Intriligator, Econometric Models, Techniques, & A pplications, New Jersey: Prentice-Hall, Inc., 1978, pp. 165–173.
