What was your thesis about? I work on financial market long-run risk-return tradeoffs. It is (almost) exclusively statistical analysis, but the theoretical framework I use for this is quite unusual. If I exclude all my graphs, statistical tables, annexes, table of contents, summary and presentation page, I must have around 30 pages of text, which is pretty much the norm for all published econometric researches. |

See, I look at all that and think of some of the tests I learned for experimentation in a computational research class I took last year. However, none of them seems to be the same sort of tests that I learned, like the T-Test, Chi Squared Good of Fitness or ANOVA. I am afraid that I cannot be of assistance. Sorry. >.< |

The T-test is there. It's the "t" column. The corresponding p-value is also available in the P>|t| column. I can also use a chi-square statistic for global signification instead of a Fischer one, both are asymptotically equivalent. The default in my statistical program is the Fischer test, however. |

I barely remember a thing I learned in Statistics. All these tests go right over my head. |

I was never taught the Fischer test.....can you compare it to other tests I may actually know? |

W = n/(n-k)*r*F The "=" should be replaced by an "approximately equal". W is the value of the Wald statistic which follows a chi-square distribution n is the number of observations n-k is the degree of freedom r is the number of restrictions to test F is the value of the Fischer statistic which follow a Fischer distribution If n --> infinity, then n/(n-k) --> 1. We then have the direct equality: W= r*F |

I was never fond of math, but I see (I think) where Paradise was going with his statements now. Regardless, I am not even going to touch this so I don't end up making a fool of myself forevermore. :lol: |

LOL, 100 points to anyone who can guess (it is part of a formula). |

At limit (any variable upto infinity) the hyperbolic logarithm of the product of all positive integers less than or equal to variable n negative n times hyperbolic log n plus n negative h. log n over two is equal to one plus the the sum of SOMETHING plus limit R (any variable approaching infinity). Anyone who cares (as this is a wiki image) could just hop on over to the wiki, and do a search to find the page that the image is hosted on and pretend to be smart. I don't, really, care that much. ... Ok you've got until tomorrow before I do it. |
