Coefficient of Determination Section 3.3
Coefficient of determination • r = correlation • r2 = coefficient of determination • What this means? • Tells us the proportion (or percent) of variability in y that is explained by the LSRL and variation in x.
Coefficient of determination SST = sum of squares of the deviations SSE = sum of squares for error
Coefficient of determination 3.57% of the variation in y is explained by least-squares regression of y on x.
Coefficient of determination 84.2% of the variation in y is explained by least-squares regression of y on x.
Coefficient of determination Please note:
Comparing r2 Values, Ex. 3.12, p. 162 Distinction between explanatory and response variables is essential.
Please remember • If you are given the percent of variation, you can find the correlation. Same for correlation variation.
