¡ Method 2: the Davidson-Mackinnon test
n If (m1) is true, then the fitted values from (m2) should be insignificant in (m1). Thus, to test (m1), we first estimate (m2) by OLS to obtain the fitted values, ŷ. Then plug it in to (m1), that’s y = b0 + b1x1 + b2x2 +q ŷ+ u
RESET test procedure
Estimate the models: reg price on lotsize, sqrft, bdrms, and get fitted value of price, ŷ and SSRr=300723.806, n=88 R2=0.6724
Calculate ŷ2, ŷ3, and plug them to the original equation, and estimate it. That is, reg price on lotsize, sqrft, bdrms, ŷ2, ŷ3, and SSRur=269983.825 n=88 R2=0.7059

Functional Form

Model: y = b0 + b1x1 + b2x2 + b3x3* + u A proxy variable must be related to the
y = b0 + b1x1 + b2x2 + b3x3* + u x3* = d0 + d3x3 + v3 What do we need for for this solution to give us
consistent estimates of b1 and b2?
Assume u is uncorrelated with x1, x2 and x3*,x3 and v3 is uncorrelated with x1, x2 and x3
In the same way, we can calculate the second model F= [(2.86256385-2.69401081)/2]/(2.69401081/82)=2.565, p-
value=0.0835. So we can’t reject the null hypothesis at the 5% significance.
Does it make more sense for the derivative of x1 to vary with x1 (quadratic) or with x2 (interactions) or to be fixed?

RESET test, example
Housing price equation (hprice.raw)
price = b0 +b1 lotsize +b2 sqrft +b3 bdrms +u log(price) = b0 +b1 log(lotsize) +b2 log(sqrft) +b3 bdrms +u
log(wage)=b0 + b1 educ + u, or log(educ) as
independent variable
Does it make more sense for x to affect y in percentage (use logs) or absolute terms?

Proxy vairables
Proxy Variables
What if model is misspecified because no data is available on an important x variable?
So the F value = [(300723.806-269983.825)/2]/(269983.825/82) = 4.6682, the p-value=0.012, therefore, we will reject the null hypothesis that there is no misspecification.
unobservable variable – for example: x3* = d0 + d3x3 + v3, where * implies unobserved Now suppose we just substitute x3 for x3*

Nonnested Alternatives Test
n If the models have the same dependent variables, but nonnested x’s could still just make a giant model with the x’s from both and test joint exclusion restrictions that lead to one model or the other. For example, we have to choose model between
E(x3* | x1, x2, x3) = E(x3* | x3) = d0 + d3x3
So really running y = (b0 + b3d0) + b1x1+ b2x2 + b3d3x3 + (u + b3v3) and have just redefined
intercept, error term x3 coefficient
right functional form for our model?
Functional Form (continued)
First, use economic theory to guide you
Y=AKaLbeu or lnY = lnA + alnK + blnL + u
Think about the interpretation
Example: IQ as a Proxy for Ability (wage2.raw, p297)
Model
log(wage) = b0 + b1educ + b2exper + b3abil + u Assume E(u|educ, exper, abil)=0
But the data of ability is not available, we think IQ may correlate with ability, that’s

(0.122) (0.007) (0.003)
(0.001)

n=935 R2=0.1622
(efficient estimate)
abil=d0 +d1IQ+ v Assume E(v |educ, exper, IQ)= 0
so we use IQ as a proxy for ability. And the estimated model is
log(wage) = b0* + b1educ + b2exper + b3*IQ + u*
