The dependent variable is coded as 1 if a person voted and 0 if a person did not vote. The independent variables are listed on the left along with the coefficients and the standard errors in parentheses. Identify which variables are statistically significant.
Regression Model for Vote Turnout
Female 2.001 (.05)
Age .005 (.555)
White 1.084 (1.004)
Income .00003 (.003)
Democrat 1.05 (.05)
Republican -2.08 (.08)
Political Efficacy 1.99 (.546)
Voted in the Last Election 1.001 (.001)
Solution
VARIABLES THAT ARE STATISTICALLY SIGNIGICANT
FEMALE
WHITE
DEMOCRAT
POLITICAL EFFICACY
VOTED IN THE LAST ELECTION
as you can see all of these variables have something in common
their coefficients are greater than their standard error
Just Republican is the exception because Republican has a coefficient negative
