Question

If the Durbin-Watson statistic is greater than (4 − dL), then we conclude that

Answer 1

Answer:

Option(b) is the correct answer to the given question

Step-by-step explanation:

1) If $d\leq dl$  then , there must be a positive Autocorrelation

According to it if the ratio d of durbin-watson is equal to or less than dL then it is called as Positive Autocorrelation.

2 ) if , then  it is  Inconclusive

According to it If the coefficient d of the Durbin-Watson is between dL & du then it is called as  Inconclusive.

3) if $d\geq du$  then there is No proof of the Autocorrelation

According to it if the d  of the durbin-watson will be less than or equivalent to du then it is called as  No Autocorrelation.

4) If $d \leq (4-du)$ ) then there is No proof of the Autocorrelation

According to it if the d  of the durbin-watson will be less than or equivalent to 4- du then it is called as  No Autocorrelation.

5) If the $( 4 - du ) \leq d \leq ( 4 -dl )$  , then it is Inconclusive

According to it if the  d of the durbin-watson is between the $(4-du) \ and \ (4-dl)$ then it is called as Inconclusive.

6) If the $d \geq (4-dl)$ then it called as  negative Autocorrelation

According to it if the d of the durbin-watson is greater then $4-dl$ then it is called as negative autocorrelation.

• From the point 6 we can say that the option(B) is correct
• All the others options are not correct for (4 − dL), so these are incorrect option .
