- Econometrics Thomas Eisensee and David Stromberg wanted to measure how much news coverage of a foreign disaster impacted the amount of disaster relief provided by the U.S. government. They argue that the simple relationship would be biased. Let X = Minutes of News Coverage and Y= Disaster Aid. Choose a variable X2 that could bias the simple relationship. This variable should impact the amount of coverage and impact the amount of aid for reasons other than purely news coverage. Eisensee and Stromberg introduce an instrument Z = During the Olympics. Explain how Z could satisfy the relevant and exogenous criteria. Explain how you could use Z to estimate the impact of X on Y free from X2 bias. Hint: you should mention two stages.arrow_forwardGive me fastarrow_forwardPlease refernece attachment. See image below.arrow_forward
- Suppose you are interested in studying the effect of time spent in an SAT preparation course on actual SAT score. You propose the following regression of SAT score on hours spent in preparation for SAT and family income: Y = Bo + BiX + B2X2 + u Where Y = score on SAT X₁ = time spent in studying in an SAT preparation course X₂ = income of the student's family u = error term An important assumption in the regression model with two independent variables is that E(u|x₁,x₂)=0. Assume for simplicity that the only other relevant factor (contained in the error term) that affects Y is natural ability. That is, natural ability and u are essentially equivalent in your regression. In the context of your proposed regression, this assumption assumes which of the following?arrow_forwardSuppose researchers use observational data to study the effect of class size and teacher experience on student score.
