ECONOMETRICS
These slides were originally for posts in the facebook group Quick concepts for econometrics which is still somewhat active. The creation of each post required at best a two step process and consequently the “postcards” could not be produced directly on the facebook page. I may still from time to time produce such cards for the facebook wall an may even produce similar cards for other subjects (which I have not done yet). The consequence of this is that posts (down the left hand menu) and pages (across the top menu) for econometrics are mirrored and largely the same. Comments and contributions are welcome on the posts but the pages are frozen so to speak.
