A researcher wants to study the determinants of crime in Turkey. For this she has data 81 Turkish provinces over 17 years. She estimates by OLS the following regression crmpc = Bo + D; + B1polpc + a;+UR where crmpc is the crime rate per head of population, polpc is the number of police officers per 1000 individuals. The parameter D, refers to year fixed effects and is one in year t and zero for all other years. a, is the unobserved province fixed effect and u, is a random unobservable term (idiosyncratic shock). The First Difference estimator (Check all that apply). Your answer: O allows covariance between u, and polpc O does not allow covariance between a , and polpc O allows covariance between a, and polpc

A researcher wants to study the determinants of crime in Turkey. For this she has data 81 Turkish provinces over 17 years. She estimates by OLS
the following regression
crmpc = Bo + D; + B1polpc + a;+U
where crmpc is the crime rate per head of population, polpc is the number of police officers per 1000 individuals. The parameter D, refers to year
fixed effects and is one in yeart and zero for all other years. a, is the unobserved province fixed effect and u, is a random unobservable term
(idiosyncratic shock).
The First Difference estimator (Check all that apply).
Your answer:
O allows covariance between u, and polpc
does not allow covariance between a, and polpc
allows covariance between a, and polpc
does not allow covariance between u, and polpc
O O
