Note(s): This table presents results of the analysis that examines the effect of screen for price on the estimated relation of idiosyncratic volatility (IVOL) with realized return (Rtt+1). Price(t) (Price (t + 1)) is stock price on 06/30 of t (t + 1) and AvgPrice is the average of Price(t) and Price (t + 1). The dependent variable (Rtt+1) is stock return over 07/01 of t through 06/30 of t + 1, t = 1966 to 2015. IVOL is the idiosyncratic volatility measure, defined in  Appendix 2. Industry FE stands for industry fixed effects. Controls stands for control variables, defined in  Appendix 2. T-statistics in parentheses are adjusted for Newey-West autocorrelations of three lags. **, *, and † denote statistical significance at the 1, 5, and 10% levels, respectively, using a 2-tailed test
