The book was published by McGraw-Hill Education in 2014 and is intended for undergraduate and graduate students who want to learn how to conduct empirical research using econometric methods.
The book covers the basic concepts and tools of econometrics, such as populations and samples, statistical inference, data collection and management, summary statistics, hypothesis testing, regression analysis, model selection, multicollinearity, heteroskedasticity, autocorrelation, dummy variables, interaction effects, nonlinear models, panel data models, instrumental variables, and limited dependent variable models. The book also provides practical guidance on how to use Excel and Stata software for data analysis and presentation.
The book is organized into four parts: the basics, single-equation regression models, multiple-equation regression models, and special topics. Each chapter includes learning objectives, a student's perspective, a big picture overview, examples, exercises, problems, and a summary. The book also features a companion website that contains data sets, solutions manual, PowerPoint slides, and additional resources for instructors and students.
