PASS/NOTPASS Two bonus exercises (voluntary) POINTS added to the final exam results. Feng Li (Stockholm University) Econometrics 2 / 16
3 Today we are going to learn... 1 What is Econometrics? 2 Two-variable regression The population regression The sample regression Feng Li (Stockholm University) Econometrics 3 / 16
4 What is Econometrics? ï An Introduction Econometrics means: economic measurement. Regression means: the study of the dependence of one variable (the dependent variable), on one or more other variables (the explanatory variables), with estimating and/or predicting the population. See this example: Feng Li (Stockholm University) Econometrics 4 / 16
5 What is Econometrics? ï Regression,deterministic relationships, and causation Regression is not deterministic. deterministic: If I know how old you are. I known exactly when you were born. Regression relationships deal with random or stochastic. Very important! Regression deals with dependence but can never establish causal connection. Feng Li (Stockholm University) Econometrics 5 / 16
6 What is Econometrics? ï Terminology and notations Feng Li (Stockholm University) Econometrics 6 / 16
7 What is Econometrics? ï Types of data Time series data: Sweden s GDP for the last 60 years. Cross-section data: The survey of diabetes study for 10 people in past ten years. Polled data: Pooled or combined data are elements of both time series and cross-section data. Consumption Price Index for OECD countries from Question: How accurate of those data? Feng Li (Stockholm University) Econometrics 7 / 16
8 Population regression line ï The data The data refer to a total population of 60 families. The mean of consumption expenditure depends on the income. So we call the mean as conditional mean of Y, E(Y X). The unconditional mean is written as E(Y). Feng Li (Stockholm University) Econometrics 8 / 16
9 Population regression line ï The regression line Scatter Plot the data and mart the conditional mean E(Y X) Join all the conditional mean we obtain the Population regression line(curve). Simply we call it regression of Y and X. Again the population means we use all the information of 60 families. Feng Li (Stockholm University) Econometrics 9 / 16
10 Population regression line ï The first regression model The conditional mean is a function of income X i, we write it as E(Y X i ) = f(x i ) Our example can explained as E(Y X i ) = β 1 + β 2 X i, where β 1 is called intercept, and β 2 is called slope coefficients. Then we have some sort of distribution of expenditure given income. Feng Li (Stockholm University) Econometrics 10 / 16
11 Population regression line ï The term of linear Linearity in the variables: Our previous example, Y is linear expression of X, but E(Y X) = β 1 + β 2 X 2 is not. Linearity in the parameters. The conditional expectation of Y (E(Y X)) is a linear function of the parameters. What about E(Y X) = β1 + β 2 X 2 this time? How about E(Y X) = β1 + β 2 2X? Feng Li (Stockholm University) Econometrics 11 / 16
12 Population regression line ï The term of linear more examples Feng Li (Stockholm University) Econometrics 12 / 16
13 Sample regression line ï Still the family income example It is not common we can have the whole population information to use. Instead we may only have some samples from the population. Feng Li (Stockholm University) Econometrics 13 / 16
14 Sample regression line ï Still the family income example We do the preceding procedures to obtain the regressions line as we did in the population example anyway. You may find each regression line differs from others with different sample we obtained. We have the sample regression function as Ŷ i = ˆβ 1 + ˆβ 2 X i Ŷi : estimator of E(Y X i ) ˆβ 1 : estimator of β 1 ˆβ 2 : estimator of β 2 Feng Li (Stockholm University) Econometrics 14 / 16
15 Sample regression line ï Still the family income example Sample regression is more common in the regression analysis. Since we don t have the whole population information, our sample regression line can be different from the population regression line. We use û i = Y i Ŷ i = Y i (ˆβ 1 + ˆβ 2 X i ) to measure the difference. That means we can write Y i = ˆβ 1 + ˆβ 2 X i + û i Why? û is called the residual. Smaller û i means our sample regression line is closer to the population regression line. Question: can we have ˆβ 1 and ˆβ 2 so that û to be a minimal? Feng Li (Stockholm University) Econometrics 15 / 16
16 Take home questions What are the relationships among the concepts: random, deterministic, and disturbance term? What are the reasons of appearing disturbance term u in the regression analysis? Feng Li (Stockholm University) Econometrics 16 / 16
