Chapter Goals
After completing this chapter, you should be
able to:
Coefficient Estimation
Model Verification
Understand the
problem to be studied
Select dependent and
independent variables
Identify model form
(linear, quadratic)
Determine required
data for the study
Model Specification
Coefficient Estimation
Model Verification
Estimate the
regression coefficients
using the available
data
Form confidence
intervals for the
regression coefficients
For prediction, goal is
the smallest se
If estimating individual
slope coefficients,
examine model for
multicollinearity and
specification bias
Model Specification
Coefficient Estimation
Model Verification
Logically evaluate
regression results in
light of the model (i.e.,
are coefficient signs
correct?)
Are any coefficients
biased or illogical?
Evaluate regression
assumptions (i.e., are
residuals random and
independent?)
If any problems are
suspected, return to
model specification
and adjust the model

Example:
y = house price ; x1 = square feet
y b0 b1x1 b 2 x 2 b3 x 3
y 20.43 0.045x 1
For a ranch: x2 = 1; x3 = 0

(continued)
Define x1 = 1 if z1 = 2, x1 = 0 otherwise
Define x2 = 1 if z1 = 3, x2 = 0 otherwise
Define x3 = 1 if z1 = 4, x3 = 0 otherwise
Define x4 = 1 if z2 = 2, x4 = 0 otherwise
Define x5 = 1 if z2 = 3, x5 = 0 otherwise

A lagged value of the dependent
variable is included as an
explanatory variable
Interpreting Results
in Lagged Models
An increase of 1 unit in the independent variable xj in
time period t (all other variables held fixed), will lead
to an expected increase in the dependent variable of
j in period t
j in period (t+1)
j2 in period (t+2)
j3 in period (t+3)
and so on
