Residuals Residuals, Residual Plots, & Influential points
Residuals (error) - • The vertical deviation between the observations & the LSRL • the sum of the residuals is always zero • error = observed - expected
Residual plot • A scatterplot of the (x, residual) pairs. • Residuals can be graphed against other statistics besides x • Purpose is to tell if a linear association exist between the x & y variables • If no pattern exists between the points in the residual plot, then the association is linear.

Is there a linear relationship between age & range of motion? Sketch a residual plot. Since there is no pattern in the residual plot, there is a linear relationship between age and range of motion

Residuals Residuals x Residual plots are the same no matter if plotted against x or y-hat.
Coefficient of determination- • r2 • gives the proportion of variation in y that can be attributed to an approximate linear relationship between x & y • remains the same no matter which variable is labeled x

Suppose you were going to predict a future y but you didn’tknow the x-value. Your best guess would be the overall mean of the existing y’s. Now, find the sum of the squared residuals (errors). L3 = (L2-130.0833)^2. Do 1VARSTAT on L3 to find the sum. Sum of the squared residuals (errors) using the mean of y.

Your best guess would be the point on the LSRL for that x-value (y-hat). Find the LSRL & store in Y1. In L3 = Y1(L1) to calculate the predicted y for each x-value. Now, find the sum of the squared residuals (errors). In L4 = (L2-L3)^2. Do 1VARSTAT on L4 to find the sum. Sum of the squared residuals (errors) using the LSRL.

This is r2 – the amount of the variation in the y-values that is explained by the x-values.

Approximately 30.6% of the variation in range of motion after knee surgery can be explained by the linear regression of age and range of motion.
Interpretation of r2 Approximately r2% of the variation in y can be explained by the LSRL of x & y.

NEVER use adjusted r2! What is the equation of the LSRL? Find the slope & y-intercept. What are the correlation coefficient and the coefficient of determination?
In a regression setting, an outlier is a data point with a large residual Outlier –
Influential point- • A point that influences where the LSRL is located • If removed, it will significantly change the slope of the LSRL

Sketch a scatterplot of these data. Calculate the LSRL & correlation coefficient. Does there appear to be an influential point? If so, remove it and then calculate the new LSRL & correlation coefficient.
Which of these measures are resistant? • LSRL • Correlation coefficient • Coefficient of determination NONE – all are affected by outliers
