As a way to test whether E[ui∨treatmenti]=0, researchers sometimes estimate a regression of treatment on other independent variables and check if they are jointly statistically significant. Perform this exercise by first regressing treatment on the following control variables (in a single regression): number of students in school, number of teachers in school, % female, % mother has secondary schooling, % father has secondary schooling, % receiving cash transfer, % with computer with internet, % students failed at least one year, % students not working.

Then perform a test of model significance, and comment on whether the result does or does not support the assumption E[ui∨treatmenti]=0

I DONT NEED AN EXACT ANSWER, I JUST NEED SOMEONE TO EXPLAIN HOW I WOULD GO ABOUT CHECKING IF THE VARIABLES ARE JOINTLY STATISTICALLY SIGNIFICANT USING STATA. THANKS IN ADVANCE!
