Imagine that you regressed the earnings of individuals on a constant, a binary variable (“Male”) which takes on the value of 1 for males and is 0 otherwise, and another binary variable (“Female”) which takes on the value of 1 for female and is 0 otherwise. Because females typically earn less than males, you would expect: Group of answer choices autocorrelation or serial correlation to be a serious problem. the estimated coefficient for Male to have a positive sign, and...

In the process of collecting weight and height data from 29 female and 81 male students at your university, you also asked the students for the number of siblings they have. Although it was not quite clear to you initially what you would use that variable for, you construct a new theory that suggests that children who have more siblings come from poorer families and will have to share the food on the table. Although a friend tells you that...

experience is "Age-Education-6." This means subtracting years of
education minus 6. Explain the underlying rationale.

) You have collected 14,925 observations from the Current Population Survey. There are 6,285 females in the sample, and 8,640 males. The females report a mean of average hourly earnings of $16.50 with a standard deviation of $9.06. The males have an average of $20.09 and a standard deviation of $10.85. The overall mean average hourly earnings is $18.58. a. Using the t-statistic for testing differences between two means (section 3.4 of your textbook), decide whether or not there is...

The data set consists of information on 4900 full-time full-year workers. The highest educational achievement for each worker was either a high school diploma or a bachelor's degree. The worker's ages ranged from 25 to 45 years. The data set also contained information on the region of the country where the person lived, marital status, and number of children. For the purposes of these exercises, let AHE = average hourly earnings (in 2005 dollars) College = binary variable (1 if...
