If the Estimates of the Coefficients of Interest Change Substantially

question 45

Multiple Choice

If the estimates of the coefficients of interest change substantially across specifications,

• A)then this can be expected from sample variation.
• B)then you should change the scale of the variables to make the changes appear to be smaller.
• C)then this often provides evidence that the original specification had omitted variable bias.
• D)then choose the specification for which your coefficient of interest is most significant.
