Chapter Topics • Types of Regression Models • Determining the Simple Linear Regression Equation • Measures of Variation in Regression and Correlation • Assumptions of Regression and Correlation • Residual Analysis and the Durbin-Watson Statistic • Estimation of Predicted Values • Correlation - Measuring the Strength of the Association
Purpose of Regression and Correlation Analysis • Regression Analysis is Used Primarily for Prediction • A statistical model used to predict the values of a dependent or response variable based on values of at least one independent or explanatory variable • Correlation Analysis is Used to Measure Strength of the Association Between Numerical Variables
Types of Regression Models Positive Linear Relationship Relationship NOT Linear Negative Linear Relationship No Relationship
Simple Linear Regression Model • Relationship Between Variables Is a Linear Function • The Straight Line that Best Fit the Data Random Error Y intercept Dependent (Response) Variable Independent (Explanatory) Variable Slope
Sample Linear Regression Model Ù Ù Yi = Predicted Value of Y for observation i Xi = Value of X for observationi b0 = Sample Y - intercept used as estimate of the population b0 b1 = Sample Slope used as estimate of the population b1
Simple Linear Regression Equation: Example Annual Store Square Sales Feet ($000) 1 1,726 3,681 2 1,542 3,395 3 2,816 6,653 4 5,555 9,543 5 1,292 3,318 6 2,208 5,563 7 1,313 3,760 You wish to examine the relationship between the square footage of produce stores and its annual sales. Sample data for 7 stores were obtained. Find the equation of the straight line that fits the data best
Equation for the Best Straight Line Ù From Excel Printout:
Graph of the Best Straight Line Yi = 1636.415 +1.487Xi Ù
Interpreting the Results Ù Yi = 1636.415 +1.487Xi The slope of 1.487 means for each increase of one unit in X, the Y is estimated to increase 1.487units. For each increase of 1 square foot in the size of the store, the model predicts that the expected annual sales are estimated to increase by $1487.
Measures of Variation:The Sum of Squares • SST=Total Sum of Squares • measures the variation of the Yivalues around their mean Y _ • SSR = Regression Sum of Squares • explained variation attributable to the relationship between X and Y • SSE=Error Sum of Squares • variation attributable to factors other than the relationship between X and Y
Measures of Variation: The Sum of Squares Y Ù SSE =å(Yi-Yi )2 Ù Yi = b0 + b1Xi _ SST =å(Yi-Y)2 _ Ù SSR = å(Yi -Y)2 _ Y X Xi
The Sum of Squares: Example Excel Output for Produce Stores SSR SSE SST
The Coefficient of Determination SSR regression sum of squares r2 = = SST total sum of squares Measures the proportion of variation that is explained by the independent variable X in the regression model
Coefficients of Determination (r2) and Correlation (r) r2 = 1, Y r = +1 Y r2 = 1, r = -1 ^ Y = b + b X i 0 1 i ^ Y = b + b X i 0 1 i X X r2 = .8, r2 = 0, r = +0.9 r = 0 Y Y ^ ^ Y = b + b X Y = b + b X i 0 1 i i 0 1 i X X
Standard Error of Estimate Ù = The standard deviation of the variation of observations around the regression line
Measures of Variation: Example Excel Output for Produce Stores Syx r2 = .94 94% of the variation in annual sales can be explained by the variability in the size of the store as measured by square footage
Linear Regression Assumptions For Linear Models • 1. Normality • Y Values Are Normally Distributed For Each X • Probability Distribution of Error is Normal • 2. Homoscedasticity (Constant Variance) • 3. Independence of Errors
Variation of Errors Around the Regression Line y values are normally distributed around the regression line. For each x value, the “spread” or variance around the regression line is the same. f(e) Y X2 X1 X Regression Line
Residual Analysis • Purposes • Examine Linearity • Evaluate violations of assumptions • Graphical Analysis of Residuals • Plot residuals Vs. Xi values • Difference between actual Yi & predicted Yi • Studentized residuals: • Allows consideration for the magnitude of the residuals Ù

The Durbin-Watson Statistic • Used when data is collected over time to detect autocorrelation (Residuals in one time period are related to residuals in another period) • Measures Violation of independence assumption Should be close to 2. If not, examine the model for autocorrelation.
