1. In the linear probability model (LPM): a. The model parameters can be estimated consistently and efficiently using the method of Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) estimation. b. The dependent variable can't take discrete values, Y = 0 and Y = 1. c. The error term of the model is heteroskedastic. d. The explanatory variables of the model always have to be continuous.

18. The major problem of the linear probability model is that A) the predicted probabilities may be negative or larger than 1. B) the dependent variable is binary, yet the predicted values of this model are almost never exactly 0 or 1. C) the regression R2 cannot be used as a measure of fit. D) people do not always make clear-cut decisions.

1. Which of the following was identified as one of the classical linear regression assumptions? A. Values of the dependent variable are fixed. B. The error term should have a constant variance. C. There must be variability in all dependent and independent variables. D. Sample size should be greater than the parameters.

4. In order to use the linear regression model, we need assumptions about the error term. Which of the following assumptions is not one of the assumptions? a. The error term, εi is presumed to be a normally distributed random variable. b. The mean, or expected value, of the error term is non-zero (E(εi) ≠ 0). c. The variance of the error term is constant, denoted by σε^2. d. The errors are assumed to be independent of each other. e. All of the above.
