  • Constant term P value is zero

    In my OLS regression. I am getting a p-value for constant is zero. what it signifies.i have heard it means your model is weak but I am getting R2=0.7 and after 3-SLS same thing happens p-value for constant is zero. and R2=0.67.can you explain?
    Thank you

    I know my two equations have endogeneity that's why I use 3-SLS.

      P-value not zero; just very small. Just a matter of display rounding.

      Intercept being significantly different from zero has nothing to do with the model being weak — unless your idea is that the intercept should be zero.

            hi nick...i dont have proble with const. term being zero...... my question is constant(intercept) p value being significant means p value <0.05.

                It is hard to understand your question. It looks like you don't know what a p-value is in general. Is that true? I am not trying to make you look bad (if it comes down to it, most people who report p-values have trouble with its correct interpretation) I am just trying to find out at what level I should respond such that the answer is useful to you.
