Title:
Josh Angrist: Wat is het verschil tussen econometrie en statistiek?
Description:

Isn’t econometrics just a fancy word for statistics? Nope. Master Joshway explains that while there is some overlap between the two fields, they’re motivated by different questions.

Statisticians use sampling to make statistical inferences about large populations. Econometricians, on the other hand, examine counterfactuals to make causal inferences.
