Æ 0.05, an asymptotic 5% test of H0 rejects when T È 7.815. An econometrician is interested in the Type I error of this test when n Æ 100 and the data structure is well specified. She performs the followingMonte Carlo experiment.
• B Æ 200 samples of size n Æ 100 are generated from a distribution satisfying H0.
• On each sample, the test statistic Tb is calculated.
• She calculates b p Æ B¡1PBb
Æ1 1{Tb È 7.815} Æ 0.070.
• The econometrician concludes that the test T is oversized in this context – it rejects too frequently under H0.
Is her conclusion correct, incorrect, or incomplete? Be specific in your answer.
