1. (a) List two limitations of simple regression. (b) Why is estimating a multiple regression model justas easy as simple regression?
Added by Daniel R.
Step 1
- Limitation 1: Simple regression only considers one independent variable, which may not capture the complexity of real-world relationships where multiple factors influence the dependent variable. - Limitation 2: Simple regression assumes a linear relationship Show more…

4. (a) Explain why the linear probability model is inadequate as a specification for limited dependent variable estimation. (b) Assuming that you are regressing a dummy variable y (i.e. y only takes two values, 1 and 0) on an explanatory variable x. Explain why the regression y = a + bx + u (where u is the error term, and a and b are coefficients to be estimated) is equivalent to regressing prob(y = 1) on x, i.e. prob(y = 1) = a + bx. Notice that since u is the error term, it has a zero mean.

Why do we usually prefer to compute a multiple regression as opposed to one or more simple regressions?
