More positive residuals (under-predicting) More positive residuals (under-predicting) More negative residuals (over-predicting) More negative residuals (over-predicting) More negative residuals (over-predicting) More negative residuals (over-predicting)

  8. What alternative statistical model might be useful here? What kind of population model would have given rise to these sample data? As HOME prices get larger, PCTADV increases at a slower rate The effect of HOME prices is larger when HOME prices are low and smaller when HOME prices are high

  13. Conceptually, what have we done by regressing Y on Log2(X)?

  14. How would we summarize the results of this analysis? Cambridge • Some possible ways to describe the effect: • The percentage of 10th graders scoring in the advanced range on the math MCAS is 33.70 points higher for every doubling of district median home prices • As median home prices double, the percentage of 10th graders scoring in the advanced range on the math MCAS is 33.70 points higher

  15. OECD’s Education at a Glance RQ: What’s the relationship between GDP and PPE in OECD countries? Countries with a GDP per capita around US$25,000 demonstrate a clear positive relationship between spending on education per student and GDP per capita. … There is considerable variation in spending on education per student among OECD countries with a GDP per capita greater than $25,000, where the higher GDP per capita, the greater the variation in expenditure devoted to students.” (OECD, 2005) “The relationship between GDP per capita and expenditure per student is complex. Chart B1.6 shows the co-existence of two different relationships between two distinct groups of countries…

  17. What’s the relationship between PPE and GDP? More positive residuals (under-predicting) More positive residuals (under-predicting) More negative residuals (over-predicting) The REG Procedure Dependent Variable: PPE Root MSE 3.09519 R-Square 0.5793 Dependent Mean 10.65453 Adj R-Sq 0.5618 Parameter Estimates Parameter Standard Variable DF Estimate Error t Value Pr > |t| Intercept 1 -0.88349 2.09666 -0.42 0.6772 GDP 1 0.47548 0.08270 5.75 <.0001

  18. What alternative statistical model might be useful here? What kind of population model would have given rise to these sample data? The effect of GDP is relative to its magnitude: its effect is larger when GDP is larger and smaller when GDP is smaller

  19. Exponential growth models in everyday life

  20. How do we fit and interpret the exponential growth model? 2 key properties of logs 1. log(xy)=log(x)+log(y) 2. log(xp)=p*log(x) So just regress log2(Y) on X and substitute the estimated slope into the equation for the percentage growth rate to obtain the estimated percentage growth rate per unit change in X

  21. What happens if we regress log2(PPE) on GDP? +.0699 +.0699 +.0699 ^ ^ GDP L2PPE PPE 2.2874 4881.75 10 2.3573 5124.11 11 2.9864 7924.94 20 21 3.0563 8318.37 3.6854 12865.18 30 3.7553 13503.86 31 The REG Procedure Dependent Variable: L2PPE Root MSE 0.34547 R-Square 0.7051 Dependent Mean 3.28514 Adj R-Sq 0.6928 Parameter Estimates Parameter Standard Variable DF Estimate Error t Value Pr > |t| Intercept 1 1.58837 0.23402 6.79 <.0001 GDP 1 0.06992 0.00923 7.58 <.0001 + $244 ≈ 5% + $393 ≈ 5% + $638 ≈ 5% For each $1,000 of GDP, PPE is 5% higher OECD text

  22. What’s a natural logarithm (and why would we ever use it)? In its IPO, Google announced its intention to raise $2,718,281,828 (e billion dollars) For more about e and natural logs The REG Procedure Dependent Variable: LnPPE Root MSE 0.23946 R-Square 0.7051 Dependent Mean 2.27708 Adj R-Sq 0.6928 Parameter Estimates Parameter Standard Variable DF Estimate Error t Value Pr > |t| Intercept 1 1.10098 0.16221 6.79 <.0001 GDP 1 0.04847 0.00640 7.58 <.0001 Go back to regression of L2PPE on GDP Go to understanding the relationship between natural and base 2 logarithms using the OECD data

  23. How would we summarize the results of this analysis? Comparison of regression models predicting Per Pupil Expenditures in OECD countries (n=26) (OECD, 2005) Model A: PPE Model B: ln(PPE) Predictor Intercept -0.883 (2.097) -0.42 1.101*** (0.162) 6.79 0.048*** (0.006) 7.58 Per Capita GDP 0.475*** (0.083) 5.75 R2 57.9% 70.5% Cell entries are estimated regression coefficients, (standard errors) and t-statistics. *** p<.001 • Another possible way to describe the effect: • Per capita gross domestic product (GDP) is a strong predictor of per pupil expenditures. If we compare two countries whose GDPs differ by $1,000, we predict that the richer country will have a per pupil expenditure that is 5% higher. • When comparing models, remember that: • You’re trying to evaluate whether the model’s assumptions are tenable • R2 is NOT a measure of whether assumptions are tenable • R2 statistics do not tell us which model is “better” (both in general and especially if you’ve transformed Y) OECD text

  31. Review: How to fit and interpret models using log-transformed variables Learning Curve Exponential Growth Model Proportional Growth Model Every 1% difference in X is associated with a difference in Y Every doubling of X (100% difference) is associated with a difference in Y Every 1 unit difference in X is associated with a % difference in Y (often interpreted as a %age growth rate) Helpful mnemonic device: If you’ve logarithmically transformed a variable, you’ll be modifying the interpretation of an effect by expressing differences for that variable in percentage, not unit, terms

Another helpful mnemonic:Mosteller and Tukey’s “Rule of the Bulge” John Tukey Fred Mosteller Bulge Bulge Bulge Bulge Broadly speaking, there are four general shapes that a monotonic nonlinear relationship might take: Up in Y (e.g., Y2) We’ll learn about this shape in Unit 10 MCAS/Brain Up in X (e.g., X2) Down in X (e.g., log(X)) • Two more important ideas about transformation: • It’s usually “low cost” to transform X, potentially “higher cost” to transform Y • If the range of a variable is very large, taking logarithms often helps OECD Down in Y (e.g., log(Y)) If you think of this display as representing plots of Y vs. X, identify the curve that most closely matches your data (and theory, hopefully) and you can linearize the relationship by choosing transformations of X, Y or both that go in the “direction of the bulge”

  33. What’s the big takeaway from this unit? • Check your assumptions • Regression is a very powerful statistical technique, but its built on a set of assumptions • Before accepting a set of regression results, you should examine the assumptions to make sure they’re tenable • A high R2 or small p-value cannot tell you whether your assumptions hold • Plot your data and plot your residuals • Many relationships are nonlinear • We often begin by assuming linearity, but we often find that the underlying relationship is nonlinear • Transformation makes it easy to fit nonlinear models using linear regression techniques • Models expressed using transformed variables can be easily interpreted • Regression as statistical control • We often want to do more than just summarize the relationship between variables • Regression provides a straightforward strategy that allows us to statistically control for the effects of a predictor and see what’s “left over” • Residuals can be easily interpreted as “controlled observations”

  34. Appendix: Annotated PC-SAS Code for transforming variables The data step can include additional statements to create new variables by transforming variables already included in the data set. To add log base 2 transformations of variables in the sample, use the following syntax: Newvar = log2(oldvar); Different transformation can be used, including natural logs (log (var)), squared and cubic versions (var**2 or var**3, inverses (-1/var), and roots (var**.5). The data step can also be repeated in the middle of the program to add additional new variables to the original data set. Note that you can keep the data set’s original name by using the same name in both the set and data statements. Note that the handouts include only annotations for the new additional SAS code.
