2 Multiple regression model Classical hypothesis of a regression model: Assumption 1: Linear regression model.the regression model is linear in the parameters Assumption2: X values are fixed in repeated sampling (e changes while X not). Values taken by the regressor X are considered fixed in repeated samples. More technically, X is assumed to be nonstochastic. Assumption 3: Zero mean value of disturbance ei. Given the value of X, the mean, or expected, value of the random disturbance term ei is zero. Technically, the conditional meanvalue of ei is zero. Symbolically, we have E(ei Xi)=0 (no effect on Y)
3 Multiple regression model Classical hypothesis of a regression model: Assumption 4: Homoscedasticity or equal variance of ei. Given the value of X, the variance of ei is the same for all observations. That is, the conditional variances of ei are identical. Symbolically, we have where var stands for variance.
4 Multiple regression model Classical hypothesis of a regression model: Assumption 5: No autocorrelation between the disturbances. Given any two X values, Xi and Xj(i=j), the correlation between any two ei and ej (i=j) is zero. Symbolically, full rank: k
5 Multiple regression model Classical hypothesis of a regression model: Assumption 10: No perfect multicollinearity. That is, there are no perfect linear relationships among the explanatory variables
6 Multiple regression model Classical hypothesis of a regression model:
7 Anatomy of econometric modeling
8 Multiple regression model Ordinary Least Squares It is possible to show, through the GAUSS-MARKOV Theorem, that OLS are BLUE (Best Linear Unbiased Estimates). It means that OLS estimates are not distorted, linear in the residuals, consistent and are, among all not distorted and linear estimates, that with the minimum variance. 1.it is linear: a linear function of a random variable, such as the dependent variable Y in the regression model 2.it is unbiased: its average or expected value is equal to the true value of beta 3.It is efficient estimator: minimum variance in the class of all such linear unbiased estimators
9 Multiple regression model Goodness of fit Thus far we were concerned with the problem of estimating regression coefficients, their standard errors, and some of their properties. We now consider the goodness of fit of the fitted regression line to a set of data; that is, we shall find out how well the sample regression line fits the data. It is clear in the figure that if all the observations were to lie on the regression line, we would obtain a perfect fit, but this is rarely the case. Generally, there will be some positive errors and some negative. What we hope for is that the residuals around the regression line are as small as possible. The coefficient of determination r 2 (two-variable case) or R 2 (multiple regression) is a summary measure that tells how well the sample regression line fits the data.
10 Goodness of fit Multiple regression model
11 Goodness of fit Multiple regression model
12 Multiple regression model Goodness of fit: r square measure the percentage of total variation of Y explained by the regression model TSS = ESS + RSS Total sum of squares (TSS) = Explained sum of squares (ESS) + Residual sum of squares (RSS)
13 Goodness of fit Multiple regression model It is non negative; ranging from 0 to 1 where 1 means perfect fit and zero no fit at all (no relations between X and Y).
14 Hypothesis testing Hypothesis testing means to look for a rule that allows us to decide whether, given a pre-fixed probability level to commit an error, accept or refuse an hypothesis made on a rv or population. Let s assume to have a phenomenon described by a rv X with a PDF with known and unknown. We want to analyze a phenomenon X distributed with a probabilistic law known eccept for Let s suppose to have extracted from X the sample We formulate the following hypothesis on probabilistic framework of X. and therefore on the with and such that vs
15 Hypothesis testing Since is unknown we will never know if Ho is true or if it is tru H1. The only think we are able to say is that Ho is true with a certain level of probability. is said parametric set generated by, while the hypothesis Ho and H1 are respectively named null hypothesis and alternative one. The decision to accept or refuse Ho is taken using the sample information contained in Once we fix the sample size n, we can obtain the sample rv that describes a set, namely C, said sample space. Testing means looking in C a region C1 such that if the sample is contained at C1 we refuse Ho, while if it is contained at the complementary set Co = C - C1 we can refuse Ho.
16 Hypothesis testing As we have seen the decision is taken into the sample space but that decision affects on the parametric space. Graphically: Parametric space Sample space
17 Hypothesis testing The possible consequences refusing or accepting Ho are (given that we do not know in which region falls ) E1 = we refuse Ho when Ho is true E2 = we accept Ho when Ho is false G1 = we accept Ho when Ho is true G2 = we refuse Ho when Ho is false We are fully satisfied with G1 and G2 but we are unhappy with the other two. More formally: E1 is named type 1 error ; E2 is named type II error
18 Hypothesis testing E1 is deemed as the most relevant error for its pratical consequences. Since are events (they are function of the sample rv Xn), they admit a probability, more precisely: obviously: The probability of the type 1 error is said level of significance of the test. The probability of G2 is named power of the test. The region C1 is said critical region, while Co is said acceptance region.
19 Hypothesis testing Example. Let s suppose a population where X represents the income of some worker category, and let be equal to. Let s also suppose that those workers declared an income of thousand euro. The Italian Minister is not convinced of this data and he/she makes up a test: The parametric space is A sample extraction from X of n elements is performed euro vs euro Varying the sample, change in xn occurs making change in the sample rv describes our sample space. Possible outcomes: E1 = the Minister sues workers (refuse Ho when Ho is true) - the worst scenario E2 = the Minister accept what declared by workers (accept Ho when Ho is false) G1 = accept Ho when Ho is true G2 = refuse Ho when Ho is false that
20 Hypothesis testing A null hypothesis that is commonly tested in empirical work is H0: βi=0, that is, the slope coefficient is zero. This zero null hypothesis is a kind of straw man, the objective being to find out whether Y is related at all to X, the explanatory variable. If there is no relationship between Y and X to begin with, then testing a hypothesis such as β2=0.3 or any other value is meaningless.this null hypothesis can be easily tested by the confidence interval or the t-test approach discussed in the preceding sections. But very often such formal testing can be shortcut by adopting the 2-t rule of significance, which may be stated as
21 Hypothesis testing The rationale for this rule is not too difficult to grasp. We know that we will reject H0:β2=0 if or or rearranging Example
