Suppose an
econometrician could conduct a large number of repeated trials for each value of the true probability.
Economists beyond a certain age will likely recall an era that is sometimes called the "unit root wars." During the 1980s and 1990s there were heated debates among economists about whether macroeconomic time series were "trend stationary" or "difference stationary."
Econometricians designed ever more esoteric procedures to test these hypotheses.
Worswick (1972) claimed that
econometricians are not engaged in forging tools to arrange and measure actual facts but are making a marvelous array of pretend-tools.
A Bayesian
econometrician then finds it often convenient to report moments of the posterior as estimation results.
In each market m = 1, ..., M, the
econometrician observes a vector of covariates x which is the realization of some random vector X with support X.
(10) Some of them emphasize the detailed mechanism of econometric procedures and aim to train the next generation of
econometricians. It is called specialist education.
I was not fond of the dry tools of linear algebra used by Fisher and other
econometricians to study identification of simultaneous linear systems.

econometrician and law professor at Yale.
Ayers, an
econometrician and a lawyer, makes a case that may revolutionize that mind-set.
(4.) In general, before starting the analysis, the
econometrician will combine prior information about the distribution of the unknown parameters, called the prior distribution and denoted by p([theta]), with the "likelihood" of observing the data, given values for the parameters and the unobserved factor.
Abstract The improvement of data statistics as well as the
econometrician methods have facilitated the introduction the new variables and factors I the economic growth analysis.
The book is the culmination of 25 years of research by Victor Tremblay, who has studied demand analysis, the effects of advertising and corporate strategies of the brewing industry, and his wife, Carol Horton Tremblay, an applied
econometrician. "The brewing industry has gone through what many other industries have experienced," said Victor Tremblay.
