Abstract

It is not uncommon in socioeconomic analysis to measure variables with error, as in a 10% census. The estimation of linear regression coefficients using such ‘errors-in-variables’ models requires modification of the usual ordinary least squares techniques. The underlying theory both for simple and for multiple regression models is explained, and followed up with a numerical example based on a structure plan model of car ownership.
