econometric
used for estimating the parameter of economic models
analyzes data using statistical methods in order to test or develop economic theory.
An example of the application of econometrics is to study the income effect using observable data. An economist may hypothesize that as a person increases his income, his spending will also increase. If the data show that such an association is present, a regression analysis can then be conducted to understand the strength of the relationship between income and consumption and whether or not that relationship is statistically significant - that is, it appears to be unlikely that it is due to chance alone.
