REGRESSION ANALYSIS

 REGRESSION ANALYSES

❖ Regression: technique concerned with

predicting some variables by knowing others
❖ Simple Linear Regression - A statistical model
that utilizes one quantitative independent
variable “X” to predict the quantitative
dependent variable “Y.”
❖ Multiple Linear Regression - A statistical model
that utilizes two or more quantitative and
qualitative explanatory variables (x1,..., xp) to
predict a quantitative dependent variable Y.

❖ Predicted final grade in class = 59.95 +

3.17*(hours of study)
❖ Predict the final grade of…
Someone who studies for 12 hours
Final grade = 59.95 + (3.17*12)
Final grade = 97.99

Someone who studies for 1 hour:

Final grade = 59.95 + (3.17*1)
Final grade = 63.12
 REGRESSION ANALYSES

Major Assumptions:
✓ one dependent variable that is
measured at the continuous level
✓ one independent variable that is
measured at the continuous level
✓ there should be a linear relationship
between your dependent and
independent variables.
 REGRESSION ANALYSES

Major Assumptions:
✓ there should be no significant
outliers
✓ the variances along the line of best
fit remain similar as you move along
the line, known as homoscedasticity
✓ The residuals (errors) of the
regression line are approximately
normally distributed
 ANCOVA

ONE-WAY ANALYSIS OF
COVARIANCE
(ANCOVA)

 ANCOVA

Major Assumptions:
✓ Homogeneity of covariate
( p-value > 0.05 for the covariate )
✓ Homogeneity of regression
(p-value > 0.05 for covariate*group )
