Introduction to Econometrics, 3e
Introduction to econometrics is designed for a first course in undergraduate econometrics. It differs from other textbooks in three main ways. First, it integrates real-world questions and data into the development of the theory. Second, choice of topics reflects modern theory and practice. Third, theory and assumptions that are provided match the applications. Aim of this text is to teach students to become sophisticated consumers of econometrics and to do so at a level of mathematics appropriate for an introductory course.The third edition Update maintains a focus on currency, while building on the philosophy that applications should drive the theory, not the other way around.
Features :
- Updated treatment of standard errors for panel data regression
- Discussion of when and why missing data can present a problem for regression analysis
- The use of regression discontinuity design as a method for analysing quasi experiments
- Updated discussion of weak instruments
- Discussion of the use and interpretation of control variables integrated into the core development of regression analysis
- Introduction of the “potential outcomes” framework for experimental data
- Additional general interest boxes
- Additional exercises, both pencil-and-paper and empirical
