This book has taken form over several years as a result of a number
of courses taught at the University of Pennsylvania and at Columbia
University and a series of lectures I have given at the
International Monetary Fund. Indeed, I began writing down my notes
systematically during the academic year 1972-1973 while at the
University of California, Los Angeles. The diverse character of the
audience, as well as my own conception of what an introductory and
often terminal acquaintance with formal econometrics ought to
encompass, have determined the style and content of this volume.
The selection of topics and the level of discourse give sufficient
variety so that the book can serve as the basis for several types
of courses. As an example, a relatively elementary one-semester
course can be based on Chapters one through five, omitting the
appendices to these chapters and a few sections in some of the
chapters so indicated. This would acquaint the student with the
basic theory of the general linear model, some of the prob lems
often encountered in empirical research, and some proposed
solutions. For such a course, I should also recommend a brief
excursion into Chapter seven (logit and pro bit analysis) in view
of the increasing availability of data sets for which this type of
analysis is more suitable than that based on the general linear
model."
