Statistical Analysis and Tests
1. Evaluate Adj R2.
2. Each variable (independent variables have to be tested by using t-test, so as to see whether each of the variables (exogenous or independent) that you have include in the function has an effect on the dependent variable (left hand side).
3. For t-test, the following steps should be followed:
(i) H0: β0 = 0
(Null hypothesis)
HA: β0 ¹ 0
(Alternate hypothesis)
If t calculated > t table value (n-k) degrees of freedom
where:
n = # of observations
k = # of parameters, i.e. # of right hand side variables plus the constant
then H0 is rejected, i.e. the variable you are testing has an effect on the dependent variable.
4. Do F-test, by following these steps:
(i) H0: β0 = β1 = β2 = 0
(Null hypothesis)
HA: At least one β is not equal to zero
(Alternate hypothesis)
(ii) If F calculated > F table value
Then H0 is rejected, i.e. all the right-hand-side variables are important.
