Exercise 3

Use the data set WAGE2.RAW for this exercise.

(i) Use the variable KWW (the "knowledge of the world of work" test score) as a proxy for ability in place of IQ in Example. What is the estimated return to education in this case?

(ii) Now, use IQ and KWW together as proxy variables. What happens to the estimated return to education?

(iii) In part (ii), are IQ and KWW individually significant? Are they jointly significant?

(i)

Using the variable     <div class=answer> (i) Using the variable   as a proxy for the ability in place of   and estimating the model as represented in column (2) of Table 9.2 of example 9.3 and as given by:   The result is:     The estimated return to education is given by the coefficient of   which is 0.057628 as a proxy for the ability in place of     <div class=answer> (i) Using the variable   as a proxy for the ability in place of   and estimating the model as represented in column (2) of Table 9.2 of example 9.3 and as given by:   The result is:     The estimated return to education is given by the coefficient of   which is 0.057628 and estimating the model as represented in column (2) of Table 9.2 of example 9.3 and as given by:

    <div class=answer> (i) Using the variable   as a proxy for the ability in place of   and estimating the model as represented in column (2) of Table 9.2 of example 9.3 and as given by:   The result is:     The estimated return to education is given by the coefficient of   which is 0.057628

The result is:

    <div class=answer> (i) Using the variable   as a proxy for the ability in place of   and estimating the model as represented in column (2) of Table 9.2 of example 9.3 and as given by:   The result is:     The estimated return to education is given by the coefficient of   which is 0.057628

    <div class=answer> (i) Using the variable   as a proxy for the ability in place of   and estimating the model as represented in column (2) of Table 9.2 of example 9.3 and as given by:   The result is:     The estimated return to education is given by the coefficient of   which is 0.057628

The estimated return to education is given by the coefficient of     <div class=answer> (i) Using the variable   as a proxy for the ability in place of   and estimating the model as represented in column (2) of Table 9.2 of example 9.3 and as given by:   The result is:     The estimated return to education is given by the coefficient of   which is 0.057628 which is 0.057628
