Introduction
• In this chapter we extend simple linear regression where we had one explanatory variable, and allow for any number of explanatory variables.
• We expect to build a model that fits the data better than the simple linear regression model.
3
• We shall use computer printout to – Assess the model
• How well it fits the data• Is it useful• Are any required conditions violated?
– Employ the model• Interpreting the coefficients• Predictions using the prediction equation• Estimating the expected value of the dependent variable
Introduction
The Multiple Regression ModelIdea: Examine the linear relationship between 1 response variable (y) & 2 or more explanatory variables (xi)

– If the model assessment indicates good fit to the data, use it to interpret the coefficients and generate predictions.
– Assess the model fit using statistics obtained from the sample.
– Diagnose violations of required conditions. Try to remedy problems when identified.
Estimating the Coefficients and Assessing the Model
• The procedure used to perform regression analysis:– Obtain the model coefficients and statistics using statistical
software.

• b0 = 0.0498. This is the intercept, the value of y when all
the variables take the value zero. Since the data range of all the independent variables do not cover the value zero, do not interpret the intercept.
• b1 = 0.1002. In this model, for each additional point on
exam 1, the final exam score increases on average by
0.1002 (assuming the other variables are held
constant).
Interpreting the Coefficients
13
• b2 = 0.1541. In this model, for each additional point on exam 2, the final exam score increases on average by 0.1541 (assuming the other variables are held constant).
• b3 = 0.2960. For each additional point on exam 3, the final exam score increases on average by 0.2960 (assuming the other variables are held constant).
• b4 = 0.1077. For each additional point on the homework, the final exam score increases on average by 0.1077 (assuming the other variables are held constant).
Interpreting the Coefficients
14
• Predict the average final exam score of a student with the following exam scores and homework score:– Exam 1 score 75,– Exam 2 score 79,– Exam 3 score 85,– Homework score 310
– Use trend function in Excel
Final exam score =0.0498 + 0.1002(75) +0.1541(79) + 0.2960(85) + 0.1077(310) = 78.2857

Model Assessment
• The model is assessed using three tools:– The standard error of the residuals – The coefficient of determination– The F-test of the analysis of variance
• The standard error of the residuals participates in building the other tools.
16
• The standard deviation of the residuals is estimated by the Standard Error of the Residuals:
• The magnitude of se is judged by comparing it to

• From the printout, se = 11.5122….• Calculating the mean value of y we have• It seems se is not particularly small. • Question:
Can we conclude the model does not fit the data well?

• The proportion of the variation in y that is explained by differences in the explanatory variables x1, x2, …, xk
• R2 = 1 – (SSE/SSTotal)• From the printout, R2 = 0.382466…• 38.25% of the variation in final exam score is explained by
differences in the exam1, exam2, exam3, and hwtot explanatory variables. 61.75% remains unexplained.
• When adjusted for degrees of freedom, Adjusted R2 = 36.99%

• We pose the question:Is there at least one explanatory variable linearly related to the response variable?
• To answer the question we test the hypothesis
H0: b1 = b2 = … = bk=0
H1: At least one bi is not equal to zero.
• If at least one bi is not equal to zero, the model has some validity.
Testing the Validity of the Model
21
• The hypotheses are tested by what is called an F test shown in the Excel output below

[Variation in y] = SSR + SSE. Large F results from a large SSR. Then, much of the variation in y is explained by the regression model; the model is useful, and thus, the null hypothesis H0 should be rejected. Reject H0 when P-value < 0.05

Conclusion: There is sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis in favor of the alternative hypothesis. At least one of the bi is not equal to zero. Thus, at least one explanatory variable is linearly related to y. This linear regression model is valid
