Econometrics in Theory and Practice
Analysis of Cross Section, Time Series and Panel data with STATA 18 and R
Part I: Introduction to Econometric Methods
This part of the book provides an introduction to basic econometric methods for data analysis that economists and other social scientists use to estimate the economic and social relationships, and to test hypotheses about them, using real-world data. There are five chapters in this section covering the data management issues, details of linear regression models, the related problems due to violation of the classical assumptions, regression diagnostics and regression analysis with qualitative regressors.
Part II: Advanced Topics in Empirical Study with Cross Section Data
This part contains three chapters to include the problems of endogeneity and instrumental variable regression, and models with limited dependent variables. Special emphasis is given to the econometric models with qualitative and limited dependent variables because of its popularity in empirical research with cross section data.
Part III: Time Series Econometric Analysis
Time series data have some special features and they should be handled extremely cautiously. This book covers extensively both the univariate and multivariate time series econometric models and their applications with software programming in six chapters.
Part IV: Panel Data Analysis
Different aspects of fixed effects and random effects are discussed here. This part extends panel data analysis by taking dynamic panel data models which are most suitable for macroeconomic research.
All chapters in this book are the applications of econometric models by using Stata 18 and R. Simple presentation of some difficult topics in a rigorous manner is the major strength of this book. The topics covered in this book are basics and necessary for econometrics training of every student in economics. In this edition, each chapter has been addressed in more compact manner by incorporating some additional topics. The book thus aims to enhance their interest on empirical research in economics and other fields of social science.
