Fundamentals of Eviews. Estimation of two variable regression model: the method of ordinary least squares (OLS) and the method of maximum likelihood (ML). Interval estimation and hypothesis testing: confidence intervals for regression coefficients and error variance, hypothesis testing via confidence interval and the test of significance approaches, Regression analysis and analysis of variance. Regression through the origin, scaling and units of measurement. Functional form of regression models: log-log, log-lin, lin-log and reciprocal models. Hypothesis testing in multiple regression: hypothesis testing about individual partial regression coefficients, testing the overall significance of the sample regression, testing the equality of two regression coefficients, testing linear equality restrictions (the t test approach and the f test approach), testing for structural stability of regression models, testing the functional form of regression. Prediction with multiple regression. Multicollinearity: estimation in the presence of perfect multicollinearity, estimation in the presence of high but imperfect multicollinearity, consequences of multicollinearity, detection of multicollinearity, remedial measures. Heteroscedasticity: OLS estimation in the presence of heteroscedasticity, the method of generalized least squares, consequences of using OLS in the presence of heteroscedasticity, detection of heteroscedasticity, remedial measures. |
