Coefficient Signing Programs

 

·         NOW IN GAUSS, MATLAB, STATA, and SAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

·         This page contains a user friendly version of the program that Tim Erickson and I used in our paper on signing regression coefficients in the errors-in-variables model. (Finance Research Letters, 2005.)

·         The program was originally written in GAUSS, but I have also translated it into MATLAB. The two versions give identical answers when applied to the same data set.

·         They are really easy to use and very simple.

·         Please download and read the accompanying instructions before you attempt to use the program.

·         I offer no guarantee for the program, but it has been debugged thoroughly.
