Re: Interpretation of Coefficients in VAR Model

Unread post by alim »

Dear TomDoan

I appreciate your help all the times. I am facing new problems of Interpretation of Coefficients in VAR models. Suppose I have two variables (one dependent and one independent variables). 4 lag lengths are appropriate for this analysis. After analysis, I got 16 coefficients. Please tell me how do I interpret these coefficients?

Thanking you

With Regards
Ali

You don't, at least not directly. VAR's are analyzed based upon their impulse responses, not their lag coefficients.
