Orthogonalization of Regressors in fMRI Models
The occurrence of collinearity in fMRI-based GLMs (general linear models) may reduce power or produce unreliable parameter estimates. It is commonly believed that orthogonalizing collinear regressors in the model will solve this problem, and some software packages apply automatic orthogonalization. However, the effects of orthogonalization on the interpretation of the resulting parameter estima...
متن کاملInformational Content of Special Regressors in Heteroskedastic Binary Response Models
We quantify the identifying power of special regressors in heteroskedastic binary regressions with median-independent or conditionally symmetric errors. We measure the identifying power using two criteria: the set of regressor values that help point identify coe¢ cients in latent payo¤s as in (Manski 1988); and the Fisher information of coe¢-cients as in (Chamberlain 1986). We …nd for median-in...
متن کاملOn prediction errors in regression models with nonstationary regressors
Abstract: In this article asymptotic expressions for the final prediction error (FPE) and the accumulated prediction error (APE) of the least squares predictor are obtained in regression models with nonstationary regressors. It is shown that the term of order 1/n in FPE and the term of order log n in APE share the same constant, where n is the sample size. Since the model includes the random wa...
متن کاملOptimal Inference in Regression Models with Nearly Integrated Regressors∗
A . This paper considers the problem of conducting inference on the regression coefficient in a bivariate regression model with a highly persistent regressor. Gaussian asymptotic power envelopes are obtained for a class of testing procedures satisfying a conditionality restriction. In addition, the paper proposes testing procedures that attain these power envelopes whether or not the innovation...
متن کاملSome Identification Issues in Nonparametric Linear Models with Endogenous Regressors
In applied work economists often seek to relate a given response variable to some causal parameter associated with it. This parameter usually represents a summarization based on some explanatory variables of the distribution of , such as a regression function, and treating it as a conditional expectation is central to its identification and estimation. However, the interpretation of as a condit...
