1Which of the following statements is CORRECT?
- AStepwise method selects relevant variables but it does not check correlations between explanatories
- BThe statistical test to check individual significance of variables is called p-value
- CThe minimum sample size for Linear Regression is at least n (number of observations) >30*k observations (k=number of explanatories)
- DNO ANSWER
- EReal value for Random perturbation is revealed when we estimate a model: it is the sample error
2What is the main difference between R squared and Adjusted R squared?
- AThey are similar metrics and either of both are valid to measure model global significance
- BAdjusted R squared takes into account degrees of freedom
- CThe adjusted R squared refers to the model without constant term
- DNO ANSWER
- EOne measures the model fit and the other the model goodness
3 In the following linear regression, the LOGARITHM of the Household prices in several areas within a city is explained by:
- The amount of Household Taxes (Taxes) per person on the area
- Allocation of the Household to a South Area (1=Yes, 0=No)
- Residents average income (RAI)
- Logarithm of Number of schools in the area (Log of Schools)
Which one is the CORRECT answer, given a 95% confidence level (unless otherwise stated), considering the effects holding the other variables fixed and decimals are represented with a comma (","):
- AOne more unit on Taxes variable produces at most an increase of 30% on the dependent
- BIf we increased our confidence level to 99%, none of the explanatories would be significant
- CNO ANSWER
- DNONE OF THE OTHERS
- EOne more unit on Schools variable produces an average of 35% increase in the price of Households
4In the following linear regression, the LOGARITHM of the Household prices in several areas within a city is explained by:
- The amount of Household Taxes (Taxes) per person on the area
- Allocation of the Household to a South Area (1=Yes, 0=No)
- Residents average income (RAI)
- Logarithm of Number of schools in the area (Log of Schools)
Which one of the following is CORRECT, given a 95% confidence level (unless otherwise stated), considering the effects holding the other variables fixed and decimals are represented with a comma (","):
- ANO ANSWER
- BThe most relevant variable in explaining the dependent is Taxes
- CPenalty of Household prices for living in the south is between 2% and 6%.
- DElasticity of Residents Average Income (RAI) with Household price is in the range [0.01 to 0.29]
- E1% increase on Schools variable produces at least 5% increase in Household prices
5Which of the following components is NOT used when building Beta Confidence Intervals?
- ABeta Coefficients
- BStandardized Beta Coefficients
- CNO ANSWER
- DThreshold value of t-student test for a given confidence level
- EStandard Deviation of Beta Coefficients
6Regarding statistical assumptions in Linear Regression
- AAuto-correlation is having at least a few explanatory variables highly correlated
- BMulticollinearity is normally not corrected after standardizing the variables
- CNO ANSWER
- DHeteroscedasticity occurs when explanatory variables all have unequal variances
- EMulticollinearity is having residuals dependent on lagged residuals
7What sentence is CORRECT regarding explanatory variables in Linear Regression?
- ALogarithm transformation of explanatories does not affect the interpretion of its Beta Coefficients
- BExplanatory variables should be standardized
- CExplanatory variables should follow a normal distribution
- DNone of the others
- ENO ANSWER
8Which of the following sentences is FALSE?
- At-student's p-value lower than 0.05 means variable is significant with 95% confidence level
- BEvery time a new variable is added to a model, beta coefficients will change
- CRemoving a variable from a model does not affect the individual significance of the remaining ones
- DLinear Regression allows to isolate effect of individual variables
- ENo Answer
9According to the following output from a Linear Regression in which Y variable is in levels, selects the CORRECT answer ceteris paribus and with a 95% CL.

- A1% increase on the variable X1 decreases the variable Y by an average of 1.03 units.
- BOne more unit on the variable X1 decreases the variable Y by an average of 103.76%.
- CNO ANSWER
- DOne more unit on the variable X2 increases the variable Y by an average of 30%.
- E1% increase on the variable X2 decreases the variable Y by an average of 0.3 units.
10Regarding Beta parameters, which one is the CORRECT statement?
- ANO ANSWER
- BIn some circumstances, a non-significant variable might not have the value 0 (zero) within the confidence interval of its Beta coefficient
- CThe higher the estimated Beta parameter's dispersion, the wider its confidence interval
- DIf Beta estimated parameter for X1 variable is 10 and Beta parameter for X2 is 5, then X1 is twice more important than X2
- EBeta Confidence Interval is better calculated with Beta Standardized coefficients
