The second Asia-Pacific edition of Introductory Econometrics is the only resource in the market designed specifically for introductory second-year students. The concise structure and simplified explanations provide a clear introduction to the subject – understanding how econometrics can answer questions in business, policy evaluation and forecasting – and bridges students’ transition from basic statistics into econometrics. The text supports student understanding by introducing background material on introductory mathematics, probability and statistics, and provides opportunities to recall prior learning and refine fundamental skills before progressing to the more advanced topics. The inclusion of data sets from Australia and New Zealand, as well as from the Asia-Pacific region add local context and provide examples that resonate with students.
