There are a number of distinct stages that researchers adopt in the test procedures. What are they?

There are a number of distinct stages that researches adopt in the test procedure:

State the null hypothesis ( two phenomenon that have no relationship with each other).

.

2.Statistical test can be classified into two major categories. List and explain the two categories.

3.The correlation coefficient matrix is the single most useful piece of preliminary diagnostic information. It serves three vital functions: Where are the three functions?

4.Alternative forms of regression analysis may be adopted depending on the nature of the causal model: List the four alternatives that was listed in the book.

5.Ordinary Least Square regressions (OLS) fits make a number of assumptions, the violation of which can result in unreliable equations: 11 of them where listed in the book. List the 11 assumptions and explain in practice, the verification of assumptions 2, 3, 5, 6, and 8.

6.The potential Violation of assumption 7 is a problem in the accounting research and one that is frequently overlooked (Pg 101). Please explain assumption 7.

7. After fitting a regression equation, As researchers, we must conduct at least three tests of the violation of OLS assumptions, all of which may provide evidence of the misspecification of the OLS equation: What are they?

8.There is a general acceptance of the two-stage technique suggested by Joreskog (1969) for explaining the relationship between latent variables. What are they?

9.There are two distinct branches of Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). List and explain the two branches of SEM.

10.Baltagi (2005:4) Identifies six advantages of panel data over the more traditional cross-section and time-series data analysis: What are they?
