Suppose you have a random sample of 500 individuals working in Canada, including data on hourly wages, years of education, and whether or not they were born in Canada. You estimate the model y = Bo + B1x + 8,D + 8,D * x+u. y refers to the hourly wage measured in dollars. x refers to years of education. Dis a dummy variable, where D=0 refers to people born in Canada and D=1 refers to people born outside of Canada. D*x is an interaction term (D multiplied by x) Suppose the fitted model is ŷ = 4 + 2.60x – 2D – 0.25D + x. If the standard error on the interaction term is 0.5, what would you conclude about whether or not immigrants have a different return to education than non-immigrants? I would reject the null that & = 0 I would fail to reject the null that &, = 0 I would conclude that there is no statistically significant difference in the return to education for immigrants and non-immigrants.
