  15. Combining categorical and continuous variables Orthogonality … is a relationship that may hold between two x-variables The general concept is that two x-variables are orthogonal if you can’t predict one when you know the other.

  22. Combining categorical and continuous variables Generality of GLM

  23. Combining categorical and continuous variables Last words… • Continuous and categorical variables can be freely combined in a model formula • Know how to construct the model • Know how to construct the fitted value equation • Some variables may be treated in either way • The GLM encompasses many traditional tests Next week: Interactions - getting more complex Read Chapter 7 (a long one)
