Introduction

-

This vignette contains examples from every chapter of Introductory Econometrics: A Modern Approach by Jeffrey M. Wooldridge. Each example illustrates how to load data, build econometric models, and compute estimates with R.

-

Students new to both econometrics and R may find the introduction to both a bit challenging. In particular, the process of loading and preparing data prior to building one’s first econometric model can present challenges. The wooldridge data package aims to lighten this task. It contains 105 data sets from Introductory Econometrics: A Modern Approach, which can be loaded with a simple call to the data() function.

Students new to both econometrics and R may find the introduction to both a bit challenging. In particular, the process of loading and preparing data prior to building one’s first econometric model can present challenges. The wooldridge data package aims to lighten this task. It contains 111 data sets from Introductory Econometrics: A Modern Approach, 6e, which can be loaded with a simple call to the data() function.

While the course companion site provides publicly available data sets for Eviews, Excel, MiniTab, and Stata commercial software, R is the open source option. Furthermore, using R while building a foundation in econometric modeling introduces one to software tools capable of scaling with the demands of modern methods in statistical computing.

In addition, the Appendix cites additional sources about using R for econometrics.

Now, install and load the wooldridge package and lets get started.

Applied Econometrics with R

From the publisher’s website:

-

This is the first book on applied econometrics using the R system for statistical computing and graphics. It presents hands-on examples for a wide range of econometric models, from classical linear regression models for cross-section, time series or panel data and the common non-linear models of microeconometrics such as logit, probit and tobit models, to recent semiparametric extensions. In addition, it provides a chapter on programming, including simulations, optimization, and an introduction to R tools enabling reproducible econometric research. An R package accompanying this book, AER, is available from the Comprehensive R Archive Network (CRAN) at http://CRAN.R-project.org/package=AER.

The wooldridge data package aims to lighten the task by easily loading any data set from the text. The package contains documentation for each set and all data has been compressed to a fraction its original size. Just install the package, load it, and call the data you wish to work with.

But wait…there’s more! A vignette, Introductory Econometrics Examples✨ illustrates solutions to examples from each chapter of the text, offering a relevant introduction to econometric modelling with R. The vignette also includes an Appendix of helpful resources, such as Using R for Introductory Econometrics by Florian Hess.

While the original course companion site provides publicly available data sets for Eviews, Excel, MiniTab, and Stata commercial software, R is the open source option. Furthermore, using R while building a foundation in econometric modeling introduces one to software tools capable of scaling with the demands of modern methods in statistical computing. And, working with R is fun.
