Câu hỏi: 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 1: 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 2: Which one of the following is NOT an assumption of the classical linear regression model?

A. The explanatory variables are uncorrelated with the error terms

B. The disturbance terms have zero mean

C. The dependent variable is not correlated with the disturbance terms

D. The disturbance terms are independent of one another

A. Continuous

B. Cardinal

C. Ordinal

D. Nominal

Câu 4: Which of the following is a correct interpretation of a “95% confidence interval” for a regression parameter?

A. We are 95% sure that the interval contains the true value of the parameter

B. We are 95% sure that our estimate of the coefficient is correct

C. We are 95% sure that the interval contains our estimate of the coefficient

D. In repeated samples, we would derive the same estimate for the coefficient 95% of the time

Câu 5: Which of the following is the most accurate definition of the term “the OLS estimator”?

A. It comprises the numerical values obtained from OLS estimation

B. It is a formula that, when applied to the data, will yield the parameter estimates

C. It is equivalent to the term “the OLS estimate”

D. It is a collection of all of the data used to estimate a linear regression model.

Câu 6: What is the relationship, if any, between the normal and t-distributions?

A. A t-distribution with zero degrees of freedom is a normal

B. A t-distribution with one degree of freedom is a normal

C. A t-distribution with infinite degrees of freedom is a normal

D. There is no relationship between the two distributions
