Introduction to Linear Regression Conceptual Data Analysis Series
Episode Objectives What is linear regression? When would I use linear regression? How is a regression line calculated?
Regression Lines Y = mX + b Y’ = bX+ a
Regression Lines Y = mX + b Y’ =
Regression Lines Y = mX + b Y’ = 2X + 0
Regression Lines Y = mX + b Y’ = 2X + 0 Y’ = 2(5) + 0 = 10
Regression Lines Y = mX + b Y’ = 2X + 0 Y’ = 2(5) + 0 = 10 Y’ = 2(6.2) + 0 = 12.4
Regression Lines Y = mX + b Y’ = 1.9791x + 0.1773

Review Regression is an extension of correlation Regression permits us to can predict values of Y based on X, and vice versa Causal statements still requires good experimental research design
