Indicator coefficients and reference categories
The questions ask you to say what a coefficient means given how the model was parameterised, and to recover a group gap that varies. The algebra returns easily; remembering that a main effect is the effect at a particular point is what needs practice.
What this involves
Retrieval after a delay, which is what makes knowledge durable.
Answers here count towards what the system knows about your skills.
What this covers
- Interpret indicator and interaction coefficients
Given a model containing indicators and interactions, the learner can state what each coefficient means, identify the reference point it depends on, and recover a quantity of interest from the parameterisation.
