Using EViews for Principles of Econometrics

This book is a supplement to Principles of Econometrics, 4th Edition by R. Carter Hill, William E. Griffiths and Guay C. Lim (Wiley, 2011). It is designed for students to learn the econometric software package EViews at the same time as they are using Principles of Econometrics to learn econometrics. It is not a substitute for Principles of Econometrics, nor is it a stand-alone computer manual. It is a companion to the textbook, showing how to do all the examples in Principles of Econometrics using EViews Version 7. For most students, econometrics only has real meaning after they are able to use it to analyze data sets, interpret results, and draw conclusions. EViews is an ideal vehicle for achieving these objectives. Others who wish to learn and practice econometrics, such as instructors and researchers, will also benefit from using this book in conjunction with Principles of Econometrics, 4th Edition.
