The file contains data on 200 workers. For each, it contains the following information:
- Wage per hour.
- A dummy variable that takes the value 1 if the person is a female, and 0 otherwise.
- Years of education.
- Years of experience.
Researchers are interested in estimating the effect of gender, years of education, and years of experience on the wage per hour.
First, construct two variables:
1. A simple dummy variable called "experienced_worker" that take the value 1 if the worker has15 or moreyears of experience, and 0 if the worker has14 or lessyears of education.
2. A variable that is the interaction offemaleandexperienced_worker(i.e.femaleXexperienced_worker).
Then, estimate the following regression:
Notice that you use the newexperienced_workervariable in the regression and not the originalexperiencevariable.
- What is the estimated regression equation?
- Interpret the estimated coefficient onfemale. Be precise.
- Interpret the estimated coefficient onyears of education. Be precise.
- What is the predicted wage of a male with 12 years of education and 20 years of experience?
- Which of the 4 Xs affect wages? Hint: which of the 4 coefficients are statistically significant?
- What is the predicted wage equation for anon-experienced female worker?
- What is the predicted wage equation for an experienced female worker?
- What is the effect on wage of being an experienced worker (compared to non-experienced) for females? Hint: use the parts f and g.
- What is the effect on wage of being an experienced worker (compared to non-experienced) for males? Hint: repeat parts f and g for males.
- Is the effect of being an experienced worker on wage different for females and males? Hint: examine the statistical significance of a certain coefficient/s.
- Does the model allow the effect ofyears of educationon wage to be different for females and males? Does it make sense?
