wald test implementation

Postby quincy smiith » Mon Mar 08, 2010 7:46 am

hi i am new to eviews and have what i hpoe to be a straight forward question:

i have a dependent variable "no. of orders" and 12 independent variables, one of which is whether a marketing campaign was goin on whilst the order figures were taken.
there is a difference in averages between order figures between while the campaign was on and when it wasnt. I want to use the wald test to determine whether this difference in orders is significant or not. i am however unsure how to convey this in the "Wald test - coefficient restrictions separated by commas" pop up box.

Thanks in advance

If the variable of interest is the second independent variable (for example), enter

Code: Select all

c(2)=0
