accurate, the value of Bo will be 0 and the value of ẞ1 will be 1.

The proportion of clients that prefer Brand "A" is 60%. Recently, the price of Brand "A" went up. The proportion of clients that buy brand "A" among the first 15 customers that enter the shop after the change in price is an estimator of the current proportion of clients that prefer Brand "A". Assume that the change in price has no effect on the preference of the clients. Then the mean squared error (MSE) of the estimator is equal to: (Give an answer of the form x.xxx, i.e. with 3 significance digits) (HINT: Carefully read the definition of MSE in Chapter 10 of the text book.)arrow_forwardSuppose that you wish to estimate the effect of class attendance on student performance.

(a) Let internet be the quality of internet at the student’s study place. Do you think internet satisfies the independence assumption? What about the exclusion restriction? (b) Assuming that internet satisfies the conditions above, what other condition must internet satisfy in order to be a valid IV for attendance? (c) Suppose, we add the interaction term priorGP A × attendance. Interpret the coefficient on the interaction term.

However, it is possible that they just gained weight because they got older. One way to control for this is to look at the amount of weight gained by the cognitive therapy group (n = 29) in contrast with the amount gained by girls in a Control group (n = 26), who received no therapy. The data on weight gain for the two groups is shown below.
