Consider a linear causal model Ya+BX+yW+u, with cov(X, W) > 0. Suppose we do not observe the variable W and have to omit it from the regression, then O OLS is expected to be larger than 3 in large samples. BOLS is expected to be equal to 3 in large samples. OLS is expected to be smaller than 3 in large samples. Since we do not know whether X and u are correlated and the sign of y, there is not enough information to compare OLS and B.
If two regressors are a linear combination of each other, what is the result if we run an OLS regressions with both of those regressors present? The regressors will cause the variance of the estimates to be higher but the estimates will still be unbiased. O a. We cannot run OLS because we have perfect multicollinearity. Ob. It will ensure our residuals are linear and not plagued by nonlinearity. OC. It will increase the power of our estimates since the two regressors are related. Od. None of these. Oe.
