Rejection Rule F test

Reject if calculated F is greater than table F

Recurring patterns over successive periods of time , can be less than one year

Seasonal pattern

if the most recent values of the time series are considered relevent then what type of k do we want?

Smaller

If the f test shows overall significance, than the BLANK test is used to determine whether each of the individual independent variables is significant.

T

Gradual shift or movement to relatively higher or lower values over a long period of time. usually a result of long term factors such as population shifts etc

Trend pattern

To test for a significant relationship we need to conduct a hypothesis test to determine whether the value of B1 is zero or not T or F?

True

correlation coefficient captures only linear relationships T or F?

True

forecast is based solely on on past values of the variable and/or past forecast errors T or F?

True

in multipl regression the interpretation of slopes b1 through bk only denote "partial" influence T or F?

True

the correlation coefficient may not be a reliable measure if outliers exist? T or F?

True

the explanatory variable(x) influences the response variable(y) and is never reversed in a simple linear regression model. T or F?

True

there is always a possibility that some 3rd lurking variable is simultaneously affecting both of the variables you have observed? T or F?(correlation analysis)

True

when independent variables are highly correlated it is not possible to determine the separate effect of any particular variable on the dependent variable? T or F?

True

A least squares regression line ______. a. may be used to predict a value of y if the corresponding x value is given b. implies a cause-effect relationship between x and y c. can only be determined if a good linear relationship exists between x and y d. All of these answers are correct.

a. may be used to predict a value of y if the corresponding x-value is given

Regression analysis is a statistical procedure for developing a mathematical equation that describes how _____. a. several independent and several dependent variables are related b. one independent and one or more dependent variables are related c. one dependent and one or more independent variables are related d.

t test

A sequence of observations on a variable measured at successive points in time or over successive periods of time.

goal of time series data analysis

to discover a pattern and then extrapolate the pattern into the future

track shifts in a time series more quickly

the proportion of the variance in the dependent variable that is predictable from the independent variable. Answers how well the estimated regression equation fits the data(goodness of fit)

Coefficient of determination (r squared)

indicates both the direction and strength of the linear relationship. Ranges bwtween -1 and +1, has no units

Correlation Coefficient (rxy?)

uses a weighted average of past time series vlaues as a forecast

Exponential Smoothing

If two variable are highly correlated that means one causes the other T or F?

False

False

difference between the actual and the forecasted values for period T

Forecast error

F test null and alternative hypothesis

Ho: B1= 0 Ha: b1 does not equal 0

exists when the data fluctuates randomly around a constant mean over time. Stationary time series denotes a time series whose statistical properties are independent of time. a timer series plot for stationary time series will always exhibit this pattern

(MSE) avoids the problem of positive and negative forecast errors from offsetting one another

Mean Squared error

(MAE) avoids the problem of positive and negative forecast errors from offsetting one another

Mean absolute error

MFE

Mean forecast error

correlation among independent variables

Multicollinearity

using the most recent data to predict future data

Naive forecasting method

used whenever we want to predict an individual value of y for a new observation corresponding to a given value of X

Prediction interval

a BLANK line is a description of the data and its trend

Regression

The difference between the observed value of the dependent variable and the value predicted by using the estimated regression equation is called _____. a. a residual b. a prediction interval c. the standard error d. the variance

a. Residual
