Slide

In this chapter we continue our study of regression analysis by considering situations involving two or more independent variables.

Multiple Regression

This subject area, called multiple regression analysis, enables us to consider more factors and thus obtain better estimates than are possible with simple linear regression.

The equation that describes how the dependent variable y is related to the independent variables x1, x2, . . . xp and an error term is:

Multiple Regression Model

y = b0 + b1x1 + b2x2 + . . . + bpxp + e

where:b0, b1, b2, . . . , bp are the parameters,

e is a random variable called the error term,p is the number of independent variables

The years of experience, score on the aptitudetest, and corresponding annual salary ($1000s) for a sample of 20 programmers is shown on the nextslide.

Example: Programmer Salary Survey

Multiple Regression Model

A software firm collected data for a sampleof 20 computer programmers. A suggestionwas made that regression analysis couldbe used to determine if salary was relatedto the years of experience and the scoreon the firm’s programmer aptitude test.

In multiple regression analysis, we interpret each

regression coefficient as follows: bi represents an estimate of the change in y corresponding to a 1-unit increase in xi when all other independent variables are held constant.

Slide

Adjusted Multiple Coefficientof Determination

Adding independent variables, even ones that are not statistically significant, causes the prediction errors to become smaller, thus reducing the sum of squares due to error, SSE.

Because SSR = SST – SSE, when SSE becomes smaller, SSR becomes larger, causing R2 = SSR/SST to increase.

The adjusted multiple coefficient of determination compensates for the number of independent variables in the model.

Residual Analysis

y

For simple linear regression the residual plot against

and the residual plot against x provide the same information.

y In multiple regression analysis it is preferable

to use the residual plot against to determine if the model assumptions are satisfied.

Slide

Standardized Residual Plot Against y

Standardized residuals are frequently used in residual plots for purposes of:• Identifying outliers (typically, standardized

residuals < -2 or > +2)• Providing insight about the assumption that

the error term e has a normal distribution The computation of the standardized residuals

in multiple regression analysis is too complex to be done by hand

Excel’s Regression tool can be used
