Introduction to Time Series Using Stata

This is a great introduction to the topic at hand. The language is very clear, explanations are concise and useful. The examples are easy to follow and to replicate, as the datasets used in the book are readily available from the book's website.Being an introduction, there are some interesting topics that are not covered by the book (the author lists many of them in the last chapter).I can't wait to see a follow-up book from this author!

I am a graduate student majoring vet. epidemiology. So I don't have in-depth knowledge about statistical background which was demanded for the most of books covering INTRODUCTION of time series analysis. But, this book is written in plain ENGLISH, with the least information about statistics. So this book could be too easy for some, but for the people like me, this book will give the basic concept of time series analysis. I think this book is recommendable introductory book for other "introductory" books for time series analysis.

This book saved my butt! I needed this info fast and dirty. There may be better books out there, but this one had most of the information I needed.

This is not my first time series book, but by far one of the most helpful. I don't have extensive training in statistics, let alone econometrics but I am learning it for medical research - I think this book is very easy to read and work through for people in the same situation.The great thing about this intro book is that Becketti adequately preps you from the start, he is very detailed with his explanation of theory and basics. The second half is a very well structured, I found books I read prior to this jumped around and struggled to tie in theory with real-world examples. Here Becketti lays out a simple to understand step-by-step practical approach from model specification and identification to diagnostics and forecasting.This book is great with teaching Stata time series functions as well. Becketti takes every opportunity to explain Stata syntaxes and functions and how they relate to time series theory and the examples he uses. It's given me quite helpful tips and tricks and i found my Stata analysis was much more efficient after completing the book.I found it best to work through this book continuously with Stata on-hand. I found it difficult to have long breaks(eg two weeks or more) in between chapters, having to re-revise previous chapters when I did.The only con I have found so far is that there were a few confusing syntax layouts and corrections (editing issue). However, they were easy enough to figure out if you were working through the book with Stata.

If you are using STATA for time series, highly recommended. Good explanations, easy to understand. I used as supplement to an Econ class covering time series.

Very good! If you write some topics about time series, you will find how useful of this book.

Great!

Thanks

the product is in good shape

Nice book on time series analysis.

Excelente servicio y producto, llego antes del tiempo estipulado, la bibliografía es altamente recomendable, llegó el producto en excelentes condiciones

Um bom texto em inglês para aplicações do software STATA. Gostaríamos de ter esses compêndios traduzidos para outros idiomas, como o Português. Somos carentes dessas literaturas. Mas no geral, a compra foi ótima.

THIS BOOK IS THE BEST.ANY MORE COMMENT TO ADD.
