Question: Using Model 3, test the hypothesis that the coefficient on lackpfhigh is zero against the alternative that it is non-zero at the 5% significance level.

  1. Using Model 3, test the hypothesis that the coefficient on lackpfhigh is zero against the alternative that it is non-zero at the 5% significance level. Explain why the result of this hypothesis test differs from that in question 11.

  1. Using Model 3, calculate the predicted number of terrorist attacks for a country with the following characteristics:

Population: 600 million

Limited political freedoms

Ethnic heterogeneity: .8

Religious heterogeneity: .7

GDP per capita (in thousands of dollars): 4

Region: Asia

Using Model 3, test the hypothesis that the coefficient on lackpfhigh is
