![Consider a simple model of marriage and wage
Yit = BXit + Sit + Vit
where Y is the wage, X is a dummy variable indicating the marital
status, S represents "sociability," and V contains other unobserved
causal factors. Assume that Vit is independent of Xis for all i, t, s.
We observe a panel data of (Yit, Xit). Which of the following
condition(s) are sufficient for us to obtain a consistent estimate of
B?
Sit is independent of Xit
Sit does not vary with time t
Vit does not vary with time t
Sit is independent of Vit](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F1858a710-c111-4513-9004-6c10bf7d1d6e%2Fcc0dc81f-0845-49bd-aca2-0deee4f10060%2Fqytscbi_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
