Standardized Coefficients

Hi everybody,

I have a question. After estimating the regression, you cannot tell which regressor had the largest impact by looking at the coefficients as their magnitude depends on the scaling of the variable. I stumbled accross the term "standardized coefficients" and "z-scores". Is it possible to calculate those in eviews? if yes, how ? :-)

Thank you very much for your help.

All the best

Kai

Hi, thanks for the link. I searched for standardiZed coefficients which explains why I did not find anything.

How can I alter the code in order to replicate my estimation procedure, namely a fixed-effects (cross-section) regression model on an unbalanced sample with cross-section weights (PCSE) standard errors?

All the best and thanks

Kai

Can anybody help me please ? I am not familiar with eviews programming language and cannot do it myself ... :-/
Thanks !
