Econometrics — a mixture of ‘metaphors, metaphysics, and a pinch of bluff’ | LARS P. SYLL
This effort to create foundations for the probability approach in econometrics finally results in an inconsistent set of claims in its defence.

While appeal to R squared is a common rhetorical device, it is a very tenuous connection to any plausible explanatory virtues for many reasons. Either it is meant to be merely a measure of predictability in a given data set or it is a measure of causal influence. In either case it does not tell…
