A separate document posted on the blackboard (titled essay3_casestudies. pdf ) lists eleven cases of multiple linear regression analysis. They are all cross-section observational studies with their unit of analysis being countries around the world in 2008. Choose one case study that interests you most. Construct a causal theory that explains the dependent variable used in the case with one independent variable as the main causal variable of your theory. Then assume that this case study is the result of your empirical study, and write an essay which reports and discusses your theory and the result of your empirical analysis.
