considers the relationship between two variables in two ways: (1) by using regression analysis and (2) by computing the correlation coefficient. By using the regression model‚ we can evaluate the magnitude of change in one variable due to a certain change in another variable. For example‚ an economist can estimate the amount of change in food expenditure due to a certain change in the income of a household by using the regression model. A sociologist may want to estimate the increase in the crime rate

Demand Estimation by Regression Method – Some Statistical Concepts for application ( All the formulae marked in red for remembering. The rest is for your concept) In case of demand estimation working with data on sales and prices for a period of say 10 years may lead to the problem of identification. In such a case the different variables that may have changed over time other than price‚ may have an impact on demand more rather than price. In order to void this problem of identification what

Pearson’s Correlation Coefficient Pearson’s correlation coefficients are the most widely used method of measuring the degree of relationship between two variables. This coefficient assumes the following: That there is a linear relationship between the two variables; That the two variables are casually related which means that one of the variables is independent and the other one is dependent; and A large number of independent causes are operating in both the variables so as to produce a

Therefore‚ we learn to use different kinds of analysis –methods like sensitive
