Câu 2: What is the relationship, if any, between t-distributed and F-distributed random variables?

A. A t-variate with z degrees of freedom is also an F(1, z)

B. The square of a t-variate with z degrees of freedom is also an F(1, z)

Câu 3: Which of the following would you expect to be a problem associated with adding lagged values of the dependent variable into a regression equation?

A. The assumption that the regressors are non-stochastic is violated

B. A model with many lags may lead to residual non-normality

C. Adding lags may induce multicollinearity with current values of variables

D. The standard errors of the coefficients will fall as a result of adding more explanatory variables

Câu 4: Consider a standard normally distributed variable, a t-distributed variable with d degrees of freedom, and an F-distributed variable with (1, d) degrees of freedom. Which of the following statements is FALSE?

A. The standard normal is a special case of the t-distribution, the square of which is a special case of the F-distribution

B. Since the three distributions are related, the 5% critical values from each will be the same

C. Asymptotically, a given test conducted using any of the three distributions will lead to the same conclusion

D. The normal and t- distributions are symmetric about zero while the F- takes only positive values

Câu 5: Which of the following is NOT a good reason for including a disturbance term in a regression equation?

A. It captures omitted determinants of the dependent variable

B. To allow for the non-zero mean of the dependent variable

C. To allow for errors in the measurement of the dependent variable

D. To allow for random influences on the dependent variable
