Testing equality of coefficients from two different regressions
This seems to be a basic issue, but I just realized that I actually don't know how to test equality of coefficients from two different regressions. Can anyone shed some light on this? More formally, ...

How to compare two regression slopes for one predictor on two different outcomes?
I need to compare two regression slopes where: $ y_1 ~ a + b_1x y_2 ~ a + b_2x $ How can I compare b1 and b2? Or in the language of my specific example in ...

Test for the significance of the effect of an intervention in a time series
I am looking for the best approach to test for the significance of the effect of an intervention that occurred at a known time on a time series data. Using a toy dataset as an example, I have come up ...

Testing whether there is an increase between two regression slopes in a time series
I have a data of sea levels from a particular station from 1940 till today. The linear regression on the data from 1940-1980 resulted in a slope of 3. The linear regression on the data from 1980-2010 ...

Comparing slopes in a time series following an intervention
There are lots of related CV questions to the title above, but I'm looking for some clarification on a specific approach, and some explanation. The set up is as follows (adapted from another question)...

Is the significance of difference in slopes equivalent to the significance of the slope of the difference of two series?
Say you have an independent variable, $x$, and two dependent variables $y_1$ and $y_2$. I want to calculate whether these two variables have a significantly different slope. I can do it by calculating ...

Two slopes between 0 and 1, neither different from 0, could they be different from each other?
I'm reading a paper that does not report the coefficients from two OLS regressions. In both cases there is 1 response variable and 1 predictor variable. The predictor variable is the same in both ...

Standard error of reconstructed slopes (coxph/coxme)
I have performed mixed effect Cox hazard regressions, and reconstructed the slopes to get group specific slopes (e.g. sex-specific responses to the explanatory variable). I aim to test whether the ...

Test on the properties of two betas?
I have a set of observations. When I do an OLS I get a $\beta$. After I remove some values I also get a $\beta$. Now I want to test if the properties of two betas are the same? Please give me a hint ...
