a. The regression equation using the above data can be written as : Y = 0.78 + 1.14 X + Error, where Y represents unemployment rate and X represents Regulation Index.
b. The intercept terms states that when the banking regulation in the country is zero, then unemployment rate in the country is equal to 0.78. The slope coefficient states that as banking regulation increases by one unit, keeping all other variables impacting unemployment rate as constant, then unemployment rate will increase by 1.14 units.
c. The slope coefficient will have a positive sign because it has been observed that as the banking regulation in the economy increases, the unemployment rate in the economy will also rise. Thus, Slope coefficient is positive.
d. The coefficient can be negative depending on the state of the economy. If the economy is currently facing a banking crisis, and the regulations on banking increases to improve overall banking situation in the economy, then it will lead to decline in unemployment rate.
3. Regressions. You are interested in analyzing whether states with higher banking regulation have higher unemployment...
Regressions. You are interested in analyzing whether states with higher banking regulation have higher unemployment rates than states with lower banking regulation. You have the following cross-sectional data on 4 states. unemployment rate is the state's unemployment rate measured as a percent. regulation index is a sum of dummy variablès that describes the number of banking regulations implemented by the state. 3. state unemp rate C regulation index Estimate the coefficients (A-A) of the linear model shown below using OLS...
3. Sociology/Criminology/Economics: Records comparing unemployment rates, violent crime rates (per 100,000) and property crime rates (per 100,000) were gathered in the state of Illinois for the years 1975 - 2005 (n = 31). The correlation coefficients and regression equations are given in the scatter plots below. (a) Is there a significant linear correlation between violent crime rates and unemployment rates? (b) Is there a significant linear correlation between property crime rates and unemployment rates? (c) With respect to property crime rates, what does...
Only question 6 please, this is the model referred to in Question 6 from 5.c c) Estimate the linear model for a state's unemployment rate shown below (i.e. estimate Bo and β1) using OLS. Write the resulting regression equation. unemployment rate-β0 + β|minimum wage + ε 6. The following questions ask you to use the regression model you estimated to predict unemployment rates (ie, the model in 5.c). Use the unemployment and minimum wage data from the table above to...
10. You have a data set that contains information about individuals gender, the number of children they have, their family income, and whether they are in the labor force You estimate the following linear probability model: Plaborforcel po+B1 children +B2 female +B3 (children x semale)+u a.) In terms of the model's parameters, what is the marginal effect of having an additional child on a woman's probability of being in the labor force? What is the marginal effect of having an...
PREDICTION (REGRESSION) – Chapter 12 3. A researcher was interested in whether there was a relationship between stress and depression scores obtained from emergency health care providers. The data from 10 emergency workers are below. This is the same data you calculated a correlation on in Question 1. We are trying to use stress scores (IV or Predictor) to predict depression scores (DV or outcome). Using SPSS, calculate a linear regression model: Y = a+b1X1 where Y is Depression and...
You have just started working at large wine distribution company and have been tasked with analyzing how the company should be pricing their bottles of wine. You have data on a number of different wines that include very detailed reviews, the country of origin, the wine’s rating and designation, and the price that is has been sold at in the past. You hypothesize that higher rated wines should sell for a higher price (duhhh), but want to figure out how...
You are interested in analyzing whether pollution affects productivity at call centers. You have a dataset that lists daily calls per worker made from call centers in different cities. The data also shows the Air Quality Index at the city on that date. The Air Quality Index is a measure of the number of particles in the air that ranges from 0 to 500. Lower levels indicate less pollution. The following lines are an extract from the full dataset date...
ies yuu t pret and comimuhicate the findings of two linear regression models. The data is from an article that studies the relationship between salaries of legislators and representation of the working-classes in state legislatures in the US. Background If politicians in the United States were paid better, would more working-class people become politicians? It is often argued that if politicians are paid too little, then it is economically too difficult for lower-income citizens to hold positions of office. This...
The Department of Transportation wishes to know if states with a larger percentage of urban population have higher automobile and pickup crash death rates. In addition, it wants to know if either, the average speed on rural roads, or the percentage of rural roads that are surfaced, are related to crash death rates. Use the data file below to conduct a multiple regression analysis. 1. ANOVA table. (Conduct an hypothesis test for overall regression model using the p-value and interpret...
I NEED THE ANSWER OF PART (F) (G) (H) (I), THANKS Question: The Australian Government’s Energy Efficiency Opportunities program encourages large energy using businesses to improve their energy efficiency. It does this by requiring businesses to identify, evaluate and report publicly on cost effective energy savings opportunities. As part of the process of identifying factors impacting on electricity consumption, a large super market chain took a sample of 30 stores and investigated the relationship between electricity consumption and store size....
