MIT Sloan School of Management Working Paper 4308 - 03 May 2003 Same Technology , Different Outcome ? Lessons on Dummy Variables & Dependent Variable Transformations
There is long-standing body of empirical research concerned with the consequences of information technology for organization structure and processes. Several of those studies have reported that the same technology, when implemented in similar organizational settings, can be associated with vastly different, even diametrically opposing, organizational consequences. The seminal study in this stre...
متن کاملOn Dummy Variables of Structure-Preserving Transformations
A method is given for obtaining equivalence subgroups of a family of differential equations from the equivalence group of simpler equations of a similar form, but in which the arbitrary functions specifying the family element depend on fewer variables. Examples of applications to classical equations are presented, some of which show how the method can actually be used for a much easier determin...
متن کاملTests of Inference for Dummy Variables in Regressions with Logarithmic Transformed Dependent Variables
The interpretation of dummy variables in regressions where the dependent variable is subject to a log transformation has been of continuing interest in economics. However, in the main, these earlier papers do not deal with the inferential aspects of the parameters estimated. In this paper we compare the inference implied by the hypotheses tested on the linear parameter estimated in the model an...
متن کاملDummy Endogenous Variables in Nonseparable Models
This paper considers the nonparametric identification and estimation of the average effect of a dummy endogenous variable in nonseparable models. The analysis includes the case of a dummy endogenous variable in a discrete choice model as a special case. This paper establishes conditions under which it is possible to identify and consistently estimate the average effect of the dummy endogenous v...
متن کاملDummy variable (statistics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In statistics and econometrics, particularly in regression analysis, a dummy variable (also known as an indicator variable) is one that takes the values 0 or 1 to indicate the absence or presence of some categorical effect that may be expected to shift the outcome.[1] For example, in econometric time series analysis, dummy variables may be used to indicate the occurrence of wars, or major strik...
