问题如下:
The proper selection of factors to include in an ordinary least squares estimation is critical to the accuracy of the result. When does omitted variable bias occur?
选项:
A.Omitted variable bias occurs when the omitted variable is correlated with the included regressor and is a determinant of the dependent variable.
B.Omitted variable bias occurs when the omitted variable is correlated with the included regressor but is not a determinant of the dependent variable.
C.Omitted variable bias occurs when the omitted variable is independent of the included regressor and is a determinant of the dependent variable.
D.Omitted variable bias occurs when the omitted variable is independent of the included regressor but is not a determinant of the dependent variable.
解释:
A is correct.
考点Omit Variable
解析Omitted variable bias occurs when a model improperly omits one or more variables that are critical determinants of the dependent variable and are correlated with one or more of the other included independent variables. Omitted variable bias results in an over-or under-estimation of the regression parameters.
老师您好,选项A和C的区别是correlated和independent,这题是考察这个知识点吗?看了之前的回答,仍然没有明白这道题怎么选,麻烦老师再讲一下,谢谢。
