伍德里奇编著的《计量经济学导论(第4版)》为Wooldridge所著的Introductory Econometrics-A Modern Approach,Fourth Edition的英文改编版教材。改编后的教材内容简洁、逻辑清晰、篇幅与深度适当,并且具有比较完整的知识体系,符合我国高等学校计量经济学的本科教学需求。 改编后的教材集中于计量经济学的主流框架,加强了基础性理论,适当弱化了应用。具体分为四个部分:一是基于横截面数据的模型、最小二乘估计(0LS)和假设检验及其应用;二是时间序列数据的模型设定、估计和检验理论与应用;三是面板数据模型的理论和应用;四是离散选择模型或者微观计量经济学,用于研究个体选择的决定因素。 《计量经济学导论(第4版)》可作为高等学校经济学类、管理学类本科的计量经济学教材,也可以作为研究生的参考教材。本书配套的数据文件等教学资源可通过书后的教辅材料申请表索取。
