Suppose we run a regression of earnings (E) on years of schooling (S), using STATA and the result that we get is:. We then demean schooling (subtract the years of schooling from the sample mean) and label this variable 'DS.' A regression of earnings on the demeaned schooling yields the result:. Earnings are measured in dollars per hour. What does the intercept coefficient '13' imply?
