Question 1
As an economic analyst at a company aiming to assess employee satisfaction (Y),
you've received data on Salary (x1), working hours (x2), gender, and the project each
employee is assigned to (international, remote, or domestic) (x3). These projects are
mutually exclusive, meaning each employee works on only one project. Employees
were asked to rate their satisfaction on a scale from 0 to 10, where 0 represents no
satisfaction and 10 represents full satisfaction.
A. What type of data have you collected: time series, cross-sectional, or panel data?
Justify your answer.
(2 mark)
B. Do you believe these variables are adequate for evaluating employee satisfaction
levels, or could additional relevant variables enhance the analysis? Explain the
potential impact that the exclusion of relevant variables would have on the analysis.
C. Illustrate how you can measure gender, and type of data you would use.
