To test whether there is a significant difference in the mean weekly earnings between males and females (i.e., whether gender affects mean earnings), you regress weekly earnings on a constant and a binary variable, which takes on a value of 1 for females and is 0 otherwise. The results were (standard errors are in the parentheses): 7. 2 Ear 610.5 160.2Female, n 5000, R2 0.086 (9.4) (12.6) (a) Will you do a t or an F test? What is your conclusion? (b) Are these results evidence enough to argue that there is discrimination against females? Why or why not?
