A student aims to study the impact on atempted teen suicides (AS, number of attempted teen suicides in a state in a year), of the ease of access to mental health facilities (MH, number of operating mental health clinics in a state in a year). He obt states for the years 2008 and 2016 and estimates the following regression equation for 2008: AS = 41.31 -0.19MH. (2.73) (0.09) Standard errors are given in parentheses. The student wants to find whether the effect of the ease of access to mental health clinics on attempted teen suicides is significant or not. The test statistic associated with the 2008 study will be -2.11. (Round your answer to two decimal places. Enter a minus sign if your answer is negative.) At the 5% significance level, the student rejects the hypothesis that the effect of the ease of access to mental health clinics on attempted teen suicides is not significant. Now, the student estimates the following regression equation from the data collected for 2016: AS = 20.04 -0.39MH. (1.73) (0.13) Standard errors are given in parentheses. The student wants to find whether the effect of the ease of access to mental health clinics on attempted teen suicides for the year 2016 is significant or not. The test statistic associated with the 2016 study will be -3.00. (Round your answer to two decimal places. Enter a minus sign if your answer is negative.) At the 5% significance level, the student rejects the hypothesis that the effect of the ease of access to mental health clinics on attempted teen suicides is not significant. Based on the given regression equations for 2008 and 2016, can we definitively conclude that the effect on attempted teen suicides of the ease of access to mental health clinics is accurately captured by the given regression equations? O A. No, because the extent to which this ease of access affects attempted teen suicides has increased from 2008 to 2016. OB. Yes, because both the regression equations indicate a similar effect of the ease of access to mental health clinics. O C. Yes, because they suggest that the ease of access to mental health clinics inversely affects teen births. OD. No, because these regression equations might have a substantial omitted variable bias.
