Economists tend to relate to the subject of research with scientific objectivity (Mankiw, 2015). They develop theories, accumulate evidence and then analyse them in an attempt to prove or disprove the theoretical concepts. The main tools of the economist (and other scientists) are theory and observation, but, in contrast to the natural sciences, in economics it is almost impossible to set up an experiment to confirm or deny a new concept. In order to somehow compensate for the absence of the possibility of carrying out laboratory experiments, economists are paying close attention to natural experiments offered by life. An ...

1) Theories are to concepts as hypotheses are to variables. Hypotheses depend on tests that suggest multiple variables. On the other hand, theories are made up of concepts ("Theory and Practice of Social Research" 4). 2) Does a hypothesis propose a relationship between dimensions or variables? Yes. A hypothesis depends on the link that exists between two or several variables. Whereby, a slight change in variable ‘A,' leads to a change in variable ‘B.' In this case, it can be almost predictable that if the first event occurs on the first variable, then we expect variable ‘B' to ...

Question #1

The coefficient of determination (R-squared) shows the proportion of variance in the dependent variable, which is explained by the independent variable. Let’s say, the independent variable is the amount of money invested by a population of investors and the dependent variable is their profits received. Assume, the R-squared between the variables is 0.8567. This means that approximately 85.67% of the variance of profit received is explained by the amount of invested money.

Question #2

This phrase means that if the coefficient of correlation shows a strong relationship between the variables, it not always mean that there is a real causal ...
