1 Ordinary Least Squares Regression Examples Vartanian: SW In this first ordinary least squares regression model, the dependent variable is AFDC income. The independent variable is number of kids in the household. The sample is all heads of household. Equation Number 1 Dependent Variable.. AFDCINC KIDS 1.. KIDS Multiple R R Square Adjusted R Square Standard Error Regression Residual F = Signif F =.0000 KIDS (Constant) H:\Word 2010\Lect2.mss\OLSregres\Regression Examples 1.docx
2 2. In this second ordinary least squares regression model, the dependent variable is AFDC income. The independent variable is number of kids in the household. The sample is all heads of household who received at least $1 in AFDC income. Equation Number 1 Dependent Variable.. AFDCINC KIDS 1.. KIDS Multiple R R Square Adjusted R Square Standard Error Regression Residual F = Signif F =.0000 KIDS (Constant) H:\Word 2010\Lect2.mss\OLSregres\Regression Examples 1.docx
3 3. In this third example, AFDC income is again the dependent variable, the amount of money received from relatives is the independent variable, and the sample is only those heads of household who receive some AFDC income. Equation Number 1 Dependent Variable.. AFDCINC RELMONEY 1.. RELMONEY Multiple R R Square Adjusted R Square Standard Error Regression Residual F = Signif F =.0000 RELMONEY (Constant) H:\Word 2010\Lect2.mss\OLSregres\Regression Examples 1.docx
4 4. The fourth model examines the effect of children on the amount of food stamps received. Food stamps (measured in dollars) is the dependent variable, kids is the independent variable. The sample is only those that receive some food stamp assistance. Equation Number 1 Dependent Variable.. FOODSTMP KIDS 1.. KIDS Multiple R R Square Adjusted R Square Standard Error Regression Residual F = Signif F =.0000 KIDS (Constant) H:\Word 2010\Lect2.mss\OLSregres\Regression Examples 1.docx
5 5. In the fifth example, we=re examining the effects of the unemployment rate on the labor income of the head of household. The dependent variable is the labor income of the head of household, the independent variable is the unemployment rate. The sample is all heads of household. Equation Number 1 Dependent Variable.. HDLABINC UNCY 1.. UNCY Multiple R R Square Adjusted R Square Standard Error Regression Residual F = Signif F =.0000 UNCY (Constant) H:\Word 2010\Lect2.mss\OLSregres\Regression Examples 1.docx
6 6. In this sixth model, we=re examining only female heads of household to determine the effects of the unemployment rate on their labor income. The dependent variable is labor income, the independent variable is the unemployment rate. Equation Number 1 Dependent Variable.. HDLABINC UNCY 1.. UNCY Multiple R R Square Adjusted R Square Standard Error Regression Residual F = Signif F =.0000 UNCY (Constant) H:\Word 2010\Lect2.mss\OLSregres\Regression Examples 1.docx
