The measure of standard error can also be applied to the parameter estimates resulting from linear regressions.
For example, consider the following linear regression equation that describes the relationship between education and wage:
WAGEi=β0+β1EDUCi+εi
where WAGEi is the hourly wage of person i (i.e., any specific person) and EDUCi is the number of years of education for that same person. The residual εi encompasses other factors that influence wage, and is assumed to be uncorrelated with education and have a mean of zero.
Suppose that after collecting a cross-sectional data set, you run an OLS regression to obtain the following parameter estimates:
WAGEi=−11.5+6.1 EDUCi
If the standard error of the estimate of β1 is 1.32, then the true value of β1 lies between(4.78, 4.12, 3.46, 5.44) and (6.76, 7.42, 8.74) . As the number of observations in a data set grows, you would expect this range to (DECREASE , INCREASE) in size.
A linear regression model has been estimated for the variables Y="monthly consumption of veal (kg)", X1="monthly monetary household income (thousand EUR)" and X2="household size (number of members)" using data for a random sample of 80 households. The following results have been obtained:
b0=0.3 b1=0.5 b2=0.7 R-sq=0.9 R=0.95,Interpret the value of regression coefficient b2.
An engineer performed an experiment to determine the effect of CO2 pres-
sure, CO, temperature, peanut moisture, CO2 flow rate, and peanut particle
size on the total yield of oil per batch of peanuts. Table B.7 summarizes the
experimental results.
e. Find a 95% CI for the regression coefficient for temperature for both
models in part d. Discuss any differences.
