1 Resource Allocaton and Decson Analss (ECON 800) Sprng 04 Foundatons of Regresson Analss Readng: Regresson Analss (ECON 800 Coursepak, Page 3) Defntons and Concepts: Regresson Analss statstcal technques for modelng and analzng the relatonshp between multple varables In regresson analss, we examne the relatonshp between a sngle varable (Y ) and a set of varables ( X ) Y s the dependent varable X are the ndependent varables when specfng a relatonshp between X and Y for a regresson, we are mplctl assumng causalt (as opposed to just correlaton) =>.e., assumng that changes n the values of X cause changes n the value of Y Inputs nto a Regresson Analss:. Identf the dependent varable (.e., the varable whose value we want to estmate or forecast). Specf the explanator or ndependent varables (.e., the varables whose values determne the value taken b the dependent varable) 3. Determne the relevant group of observatons for the analss 4. Defne the mathematcal relaton between the dependent varable and the ndependent varables 5. Provde the data for the analss Outputs from a Regresson Analss:. Regresson coeffcents (whch eld an estmated functonal relatonshp between the ndependent varables and the dependent varable). Measures of Goodness of Ft (whch provde nformaton on the degree of relablt of the analss) 3. Estmates or Forecasts (whch allow us to gan nsghts useful for decson-makng) Sample Mean: n n Sample Varance: n var s n
2 Sample Standard Devaton: s s Sample Covarance: cov( x, ) n x x n Correlaton an observaton that the values of two varables tend to move together The drecton and magntude of correlaton between two varables s measured b the cov( X, Y ) Correlaton Coeffcent, defned as XY s X sy can take on values between ( ) and (+) postve value postve relatonshp negatve value nverse or negatve relatonshp value close to zero low degree of correlaton absolute value close to one hgh degree of correlaton Causaton a relatonshp between the values of two varables such that the value of one varable changes as a consequence of changes n the value of the other varable Resdual the dfference between the actual value of and the estmated value of Lnear Regresson Model (wth one ndependent varable) assumes a lnear relatonshp between the two varables: b 0 b x Denote our estmated parameter values b ˆb 0 and ˆb => for an observed value of x, ths elds an estmated value of gven b ˆ bˆ 0 bˆ x For such an estmate, we have an resdual of ˆ for each observaton => the squared resdual for each observaton s ˆ Statstcans have shown that the best estmates of the coeffcents of the equaton above are the values of the parameters that mnmze the summaton of squared resduals These best estmates are specfed b the followng formulas: and bˆ n ( x n x)( ) cov( x, ) ( x x) var( x) ˆ bˆ x b0
3 Man computer programs (ncludng Excel) can perform the necessar calculatons. To run a regresson n Excel:. Enable the Data Analss functon (see: Under the data tab, clck on Data Analss (whch should appear near the top rght of the screen) a. select Regresson b. dentf Y-range (.e., specf the dependent varable) c. dentf X-range (.e., specf the ndependent varables) d. clck OK (see: Total Sum of Squares (TSS) the sum total of the squared dfference between each observed value of the dependent varable and ts mean value (.e., n TSS ) Resdual Sum of Squares (RSS) the sum total of the squared dfference between each observed value of the dependent varable and ts estmated value (.e., RSS n ˆ ) Coeffcent of Determnaton (denoted R ) a measure of the goodness of ft of the TSS RSS regresson, calculated as R TSS mathematcall, the value of R must be between 0 and a larger value (.e., closer to ) mples that the regresson results explan a greater amount of the varaton n the value of the dependent varable When usng the results of a regresson to conduct hpothess testng, we tpcall specf: Null Hpothess, H : b 0 0 Alternatve Hpothess, H : b 0 We can NEVER PROVE that the true value of the coeffcent s not equal to zero. So, we state a Null Hpothess of b 0, and ntend to fnd support for a clam that ths null hpothess s NOT true (.e., support for a clam that the true coeffcent value s NOT equal to zero) That s, we mght conclude that the estmated coeffcent value s statstcall dfferent from zero at a specfed confdence level Tpe I Error an error whch occurs when the null hpothess s actuall true but t s ncorrectl rejected (.e., a true statement s rejected) Tpe II Error an error whch occurs when the null hpothess s false but t s ncorrectl not rejected (.e., a false statement s not rejected)
4 P-Value reports the level at whch we can clam our estmate to be statstcall sgnfcant states the smallest sgnfcance level for whch the null hpothess (of coeffcent value actuall equal to zero ) can be rejected essentall tells us the probablt of Tpe I Error f we reject the null hpothess the lower the p-value, the better our estmate Tpcal threshold of ether 5%, or %, or 0.% n mnd for statstcal sgnfcance => for each of these clams, the p-value would respectvel have to be less than.05, less than.0, or less than.00 for our estmated parameter value to be statstcall sgnfcant Multple Regresson Model (stll assumng lnear relatonshp) wth more than one ndependent varable, our equaton becomes: 0 b x b x... b x k k estmated parameter values of 0,, ˆb, ˆb 3,, and bˆ k elds an estmated equaton of: bˆ bˆ x bˆ x... bˆ 0 k xk nterpretaton of each coeffcent s that t reveals the mpact of a change n the value of one of the specfc ndependent varables, holdng all other varables constant
5 Example (lnear regresson wth one ndependent varable): Suppose we observe the followng data: Sellng Prce (n thousands of dollars) Sze of House (n square feet) 83.5,656 6,9 70, , , ,94 0,75 50, , ,78 5.5, ,5 0.8, ,756 estmated coeffcents of b ˆ and b ˆ => ˆ (.876) x Sellng Prce Sze Estmate Resdual Resdual Squared 83.5, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , TOTAL 6,56.6 Recall, the Sum of Squared Resduals wthout observng the X s was 45, B usng the nformaton conveed n the observed values of the X s, the Sum of Squared Resduals has been reduced to onl 6,56.6. For ths example, TSS 45, and RSS 6,56. 6 => R. 638

Problem Solvng or Short Answer Questons: Answer Questons and usng the data posted onlne at: The worksheet ttled Data for Queston contans observatons on Quz Average and Fnal Exam Grade for 30 students enrolled n ECON 00 durng a prevous semester. Usng ths data, answer the followng questons. A. Determne the values of Sample Mean, Sample Standard Devaton, and Sample Covarance for each varable. B. Determne the value of the Correlaton Coeffcent between these two varables. Does there appear to be a postve or negatve correlaton between Quz Average and Fnal Exam Grade? C. If we run a regresson to estmate the equaton ( ExamGrade) b0 b ( QuzAvg), what must we assume about the fundamental relaton between Fnal Exam Grade and Quz Average? Explan. D. Run a regresson to estmate the parameters n ExamGrade) b b ( ). What are the estmated values of ˆb 0 and ( 0 QuzAvg ˆb? Are each of these estmate statstcall sgnfcant at the % level? Explan. What s the value of the Coeffcent of Determnaton for ths Regresson? If Jan s quz average s 0 ponts hgher than Marca s quz average, how wll ther expected Fnal Exam Grades dffer one another? Explan.. Suz wants to run a regresson to determne the mpact of three dfferent factors (runnng speed, weght, and heght) on the salar of professonal football runnng backs. She has obtaned the data n the worksheet ttled Data for Queston. Ths dataset contans observatons on Salar (annual base salar plus prorated sgnng bonus, n mllons of dollars), Speed (tme needed to run 40 ards, measured n seconds), Heght (measured n nches), and Weght (measured n pounds) for the startng runnng back on each of the 3 teams n the league. A. Compute the value of Sample Mean and Sample Standard Devaton for each varable.
11 B. Run a regresson to estmate ( Salar) b0 b ( Speed) b ( Heght) b3 ( Weght). What are the estmated values of ˆb 0, ˆb, ˆb, and ˆb 3? C. Based upon our regresson results, whch of the three ndependent varables have an mpact on Salar that s statstcall sgnfcant at the % level? Whch of the three ndependent varables have an mpact on Salar that s statstcall sgnfcant at the 0% level? D. If Runnng Back A and Runnng Back are smlar n all aspects, except Runnng Back A s 67 nches tall whle Runnng Back B s 69 nches tall, b how much do ther expected salares dffer? Explan. E. All other factors equal, f Runnng Back C were to decrease hs 40 ard dash tme b (.05) seconds, b how much would hs expected salar change? Explan. Answers to Multple Choce Questons:. C. A 3. C 4. B 5. D 6. D 7. A Answers to Problem Solvng or Short Answer Questons: A. The value of the mean of the data gven n rows through 3 of Column X can be computed b Excel usng the formula =average(x:x3). The value of the standard devaton of the data gven n rows through 3 of Column X can be computed b Excel usng the formula =stdev(x:x3). Dong ths, for Quz Average we obtan a mean of 47.5 and a standard devaton of.754. Lkewse, for Fnal Exam we obtan a mean of and a standard devaton of The sample covarance can be computed b the Excel code =COVARIANCE.S(B:B3,C:C3). Ths elds a value of B. The value of the Correlaton Coeffcent can be obtaned b ether usng the Excel code cov( X, Y ) =CORREL(B:B3,C:C3) or b applng the formula of XY (usng s X sy the relevant values determned n part A). In ether case, we have XY Snce ths value s postve, there s a postve correlaton between Quz Average and Fnal Exam Grade. C. In order to legtmatel run a regresson on the equaton ( ExamGrade) b0 b ( QuzAvg), we must assume that there s not just a correlaton between Quz Average and Fnal Exam Grade, but rather a causal relaton between these two varables. That s, we must assume that a hgher Quz Average causes the Fnal Exam Grade to be hgher.
12 D. The estmated parameter values are b ˆ and b ˆ The correspondng p-values are E-09 and respectvel. Snce each of these values s less than (.00), each estmated coeffcent s statstcall sgnfcant at the % level. The Coeffcent of Determnaton for ths regresson s R Fnall, f Jan s quz average s 0 ponts hgher than Marca s quz average, Jan s expected grade on the Fnal Exam wll be ( 0) b ˆ (0) ponts hgher than Marca s. A. Usng the Excel formulas descrbed n the answer to queston A, we obtan: Salar Speed Heght Weght Sample Mean Sample Std Dev B. The estmated parameter values are b ˆ , b ˆ , b ˆ , and b ˆ C. The correspondng p-values are.84466e-07, E-05, , and respectvel. The frst two of these are less than (.0), whle the last two are greater than (.0). Thus, the estmates of the ntercept and the coeffcent for Speed are each statstcall sgnfcant at the % level, whle the estmates for the coeffcents for Heght and Weght are not. Smlarl, the frst three are less than (.0), whle the fnal one s greater than (.0). Thus, the estmates of the ntercept, the coeffcent for Speed, and the coeffcent for Heght are each statstcall sgnfcant at the 0% level, whle the estmate for the coeffcent for Weght s not. D. If Runnng Back A s two nches shorter than Runnng Back B, then the expected salar of Runnng Back A wll dffer from that for Runnng Back B b approxmatel ( )( ) (.e., the shorter runnng back can expect to earn $767,660 more). E. If Runnng Back C were to shorten hs 40 ard dash tme b (.05) seconds (all other factors equal), hs expected salar would be approxmatel (.05)( ) (.e., $,33,074) greater.
