Subject | st: bootstrap and derived dummy variable |
Date | Wed, 15 Feb 2012 14:02:30 +0100 |
Dear All, I can see why one would bootstrap the standard errors if a variable estimated from a regression is for instance used as regressor. Would things be the same if instead of using the estimated variable directly in the regression, one derive a dummy variable from the estimated variable and the dummy variable is then used in the "second-stage" regression? I would appreciate any thoughts and references on this.
