Regression Analysis
 Regression analysis is used to:
 Predict the value of a dependent variable based on the
value of at least one independent variable
 Explain the impact of changes by an independent variable
on the dependent variable.
 Dependent variable: the variable we wish to predict or explain
 Independent variable: the variable used to explainthe
dependent variable.
Simple Linear Regression Model
 Only one independent variable,X
 Relationship between X andY is described by a linear function
 Changes inY are assumed to be caused by changes in X

Multiple Regression
R , Rsquare & Adj R Square
• R is same as Coeff of Corr for Regression
• Is R=0.7 twice more than R =0.5?
• R Square = SSR/SST= 1-(SSE/SST)
• Adj R Square = 1-(1-Rsq)(n-1/n-k-1)
where k = number of independent variables
RSq > Adj RSq as k increases

Coefficient of Determination, r2
 The coefficient of determination is the portion of the
total variation in the dependent variable that is
explained by variation in the independent variable
 The coefficient of determination is also called r-squared and
is denoted as r2
