relationship between working during school and academic performance. Particular attention is paid to the importance of biases that are potentially present because the number of hours that are worked is endogenously chosen by the individual. A “naive” OLS regression‚ which indicates that a positive and statistically significant relationship exists between hours-worked and grade performance‚ highlights the potential importance of endogeneity bias in this context. Although a fixed effects estimator

problems of Iranian economy. In this study‚ we determine and analyze the effective factors on inflation in the Islamic Republic of Iran. After briefly reviewing the theoretical background‚ we use econometric method‚ such as the Ordinary Least Squares (OLS)‚ to study causes of inflation Iran. Our analysis is based on time series annual data from 1961 to 2005 and our results show that import price index‚ as well as liquidity‚ do have positively a significant impact on inflation rates in Iran.

Show Boat focuses on the impossibility of racial integration in America during the early 1900’s. The powerful song “Ol’ Man River” is sung by Joe‚ a black dock worker. The song is sung in the “black” dialect‚ with the pronunciation of potato as “’taters‚” and saying them as “’em.” In this number‚ Joe reflects on the indifference of others‚ in particular whites‚ on the

An early view of OL was “…encoding inferences from history into routines that guide behavior” (Levitt and March‚ 1988‚ p. 319).

Log-linerized and exponential specifications of GMT are estimated with the help of OLS and Poisson-Pseudo-Maximum-Likelihood (PPML) estimators. Models include time fixed effects and variables which deal with endogeneity issues. The research data contain large amount of zeros‚ so OLS is estimated mainly for comparison reasons‚ since it was proven to be biased in case of zero trade flows. The inference is made based on PPML estimation
