Great many thanks Dr Delaney! It would be nice if you discuss two more related issues. 1) Explanation of the coefficients in a regression w/o the intercept term. 2) If we define dummies differently then how do we interpret the coefficients? For example, consider the regression y= a1*D1+a2*D2+a3*D3+a4*D4+u where Ds are dummies for season but defined differently- value of D1 is 1 for all observations, value of D2 is 1 for all observations except Spring, value of D3 is 1 for all observations except Spring and Summer, and value of D4 is 1 only for observations in Winter. Thanks again for allowing questions and discussions.

Gayathri Ravichandran It's not letting me reply directly to your comment. But the answer is yes, you should be able to check which independent variable contributes more. One is to do a series of 8 separate regressions with 1 independent variable in each, and check the R^2. The other is to do 8 separate regressions with all but 1 in each, and check the R^2. Finally, you can do the full regression and just see which has the largest coefficient (in magnitude)...this runs into the problem of different scales, so you may want to measure your variables in #'s of standard deviations from the mean value of that variable. Caveat: all of this assumes you have enough observations to run all these tests without running into overfitting problems.To safely run 8 regressions here (or 17, maybe), you'll want to make sure that you have at least 17*8*15 = 2040 observations.

\You can use a MLE method to estimate it directly, or nonlinear least squares (Stata has a "nl" command for just such a purpose) but for Cobb-Douglas, I'm not sure why you'd want to. If you have Q = A * K^a * L^b and you take logs, you get ln(Q) = ln(A) + a * ln(K) + b*ln(L) and you can just regress that in a straightforward fashion and get estimates for your production shares...unless you know the error distribution is wrong...but the ease of this is the whole point of using Cobb-Douglas.

Hi Jason, I watched your KZitem video about using dummy variables with the regression tool in excel. I studied math in college so I was really excited about it. I’m trying to use it to forecast sales and I set it up where I had my Y values as previous sales and my X values as weeks 1 to 52, where it would be a 1 if it matched the sales week and 0 otherwise. I also included holidays like Easter x week, 4th of July x week etc. It gave me an error that I can only have 16 columns used in the X values, so I tried it with just 16 weeks and the p values were really big. I’m wondering if you know of another way I can do this to include the seasonality from the weeks and the impact of the holidays. Thanks so much!

Thank you very much! It's really helpful! But I wonder if we can get the cofficients without a dependent variable and only with two independent dummies in the equation . And how do we apply constraints on the equation? Like for example, we want to examine how much of y is resulting from the factor b, and much of it is a result of factor c, we have a time series of y and the equation: Y=a+b1*d1+b2*d2+...+b50*d50+c1*e1+c2*e2+...+c34*e34, d and c are the dummy variables. The condition is the sum of the weighted b1~b50=0 and the sum of weighted c1~c34=0. In this case, how can we get the series of b1~b50 and c1~c34?

In a regression model given as, logpgp95i = γ0 + γ1avexpri + γ2 lat absti + γ3africa + γ4 asia + γ5 other + νi where logpgp95 is GDP per capita of country in 1995, africa = 1 if country i in Africa, asia = 1 if country i in Asia, and other = 1 if country i is not in Asia, Africa, or the Americas. The regression coefficient for dummy africa is -0.9163864. How to interpret this coefficient? If I interpret "As other factors being equal, African countries have 91.6% less GDP per capita than non-African countries", is it the right interpretation?

You would need: Waiting time and whether the associated waiting time was using the automated system. You don't even need to use regression if it's just System A v. System B. You can make fewer assumptions and use a 2-sample t-test, or MANY fewer assumptions and use something like a Mann-Whitney (Wilcoxon) test if all you care about is the average, or a two-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov test if you want the full distributional test.

For instance, I would like to investigate if there is an interaction between Gender and Browser, so for my interactions, will Firefox and male be omitted? Regards, Fang
@econ_drd

Dummy variables are just a way to account for every possible combination, to allow for a full complement of different intercepts, for example. In the case you mention, Gender (G) and Browser (B), if you want full interactions, you can see that you could have: G B = 0 0 (Male, Firefox) G B = 0 1 (Male, Chrome) G B = 1 0 (Female, Firefox) G B = 1 1 (Female, Chrome) If you had a third browser, say IE, you'd need to add another dummy just because there are more than 4 combinations, and 2 binary variables can only give you 4 combinations. Lets say we had B1 = 1 if Chrome, B2 = 1 if IE: G B1 B2 = 0 0 0 (Male, Firefox) G B1 B2 = 0 1 0 (M, Chrome) G B1 B2 = 0 0 1 (M , IE) G B1 B2 = 1 0 0 (Female , Firefox) G B1 B2 = 1 1 0 (F , Chrome) G B1 B2 = 1 0 1 (F , IE) You can see that we never use 011 or 111, because that would imply Chrome AND IE, which are mutually exclusive by assumption. In principle, though, you should let your intuition help you--you just want a different intercept (or slope term depending on your application) for each case.

The short answer is get more data. :D Yeah, including interaction terms can definitely lead to higher VIFs, but it's generally not something to be concerned about with interactions of dummy variables. If you are concerned, you can recenter the variable, particularly if it's a quantitative variable you're interacting with a dummy. But dealing with collinearity is more concerning with other, ostensibly unrelated variables than with interactions, in which the relationship is explicitly stated.
