Econometrics: Dummy Variables in Regression Models

indicator variables, binary variables, categorical variables, and . dichotomous variables. In this chapter we will present several illustrations to show how the dummy variables enrich the linear regression model. For the bulk of this chapter we will continue to assume that the dependent variable is numerical.

Chap 3 : Two Random Variables

Chap 3: Two Random Variables where X i is the indicator RV, given as P[X i =1]=P{ith man selects his own hat} =1/N So E[X i]=1P[X i =1]+0P[X i =0]=1/N Therefore, E[X]=E[X1]+E[X2]+···+E[X N]=1. No matter how many people are at the party, on the average, exactly one of the men will select his own hat. 16
