The endogeneity problem is particularly relevant in the context of time series analysis of causal processes. It is common for some factors within a causal system to be dependent for their value in period t on the values of other factors in the causal system in period t − 1. Suppose that the level of pest infestation is independent of all ...

Econometrics may use standard statistical models to study economic questions, but most often they are with observational data, rather than in controlled experiments. [10] In this, the design of observational studies in econometrics is similar to the design of studies in other observational disciplines, such as astronomy, epidemiology, sociology and political science.
Transformation problem: The transformation problem is the problem specific to Marxist economics, and not to economics in general, of finding a general rule by which to transform the values of commodities based on socially necessary labour time into the competitive prices of the marketplace. The essential difficulty is how to reconcile profit in ...
Kennedy quotes Stefan Valavanis's 1959 Econometrics textbook's critique of practice: Econometric theory is like an exquisitely balanced French recipe, spelling out precisely with how many turns to mix the sauce, how many carats of spice to add, and for how many milliseconds to bake the mixture at exactly 474 degrees of temperature.
In econometrics, as in statistics in general, it is presupposed that the quantities being analyzed can be treated as random variables.An econometric model then is a set of joint probability distributions to which the true joint probability distribution of the variables under study is supposed to belong.
The aggregation problem is the difficult problem of finding a valid way to treat an empirical or theoretical aggregate as if it reacted like a less-aggregated measure, say, about behavior of an individual agent as described in general microeconomic theory [1] (see representative agent and heterogeneity in economics).
