Testing correlation between variables

Postby Josh » Tue Jan 24, 2012 3:20 pm

I'm using OLS to estimate the model below :

X=C(1)+C(2)*Y+C(3)*Z

How do I test the correlation between Y and Z?

Non-normality and collinearity are NOT problems!

Open a group window with Y and Z. Choose View/Covariance analysis and choose correlation.

I'm very new to Eviews, how do I open a group window with them? I currently have open a window that appears after running an OLS regression.

You might want to look at the free online chapters of EViews Illustrated.
