Instruction 13 ANOVA Model 2 Is the Regression Analysis Where the Dependent Variable

question 136

Short Answer

Instruction 13.37
Given below are results from the regression analysis where the dependent variable is the number of weeks a worker is unemployed due to a layoff (Unemploy) and the independent variables are the age of the worker (Age), the number of years of education received (Edu), the number of years at the previous job (Job Yr), a dummy variable for marital status (Married: 1 = married, 0 = otherwise), a dummy variable for head of household (Head: 1 = yes, 0 = no) and a dummy variable for management position (Manager: 1 = yes, 0 = no). We shall call this Model 1.
Model 1

The results of the regression analysis are given below:

-Referring to Instruction 13.37 Model 1,what is the p-value of the test statistic when testing whether being married or not makes a difference in the mean number of weeks a worker is unemployed due to a layoff,while holding constant the effect of all the other independent variables?
