Problem 2 Experiments/Randomized Control Trial Suppose you are interested in studying the effect of academic counselling on the years it takes for a student to obtain an undergraduate degree. You conduct a randomized control trial to answer the question. You randomly assign 2500 individuals in a university in New York to receive academic counselling and 2500 students to not receive any academic counselling. a. Which people are a part of the treatment group and which people are a part of the control group? (5 points) b. What regression will you run? Define the variables where required. (5 points) Λ c. Suppose you estimate ß₁ = -0.3. Interpret it. (5 points) 1 d. You test for balance using the variables mentioned in the table below. Based on the results do you think that the treatment and control group are balanced? If your answer is "yes" then explain why. If your answer is "no", then explain why and mention how will you address the issue of imbalance. (10 points) Variable GPA Average…
Problem 1 Experiments/Randomized Control Trial Suppose you are interested in studying the effect of being a part of the labor union on an individual's hourly wage. You collect data on 1000 people and run the following regression. Wage=Bo+B₁Labor Union; + &¿ where Labor Union is a dummy variable which is equal t to 1 for people who are a part of labor union and 0 for others. a. Suppose you estimate b. Do you think B₁ = 1.6. Interpret B₁ (5 points) 1 1 is biased or unbiased? Explain. (5 points) Now suppose you conduct a randomized control trial to answer the same question. You randomly assign some individuals to be a part of the labor union and others to not be a part of the labor union. The first step you take is to ensure that the randomization was done correctly. Then you estimate the following equation: = Wage, Bo+B₁Treatment; + &; Treatment =1 if the student is assigned to be a part of Labor Union Treatment=0 if the student is assigned to not be a part of Labor Union c.
