Multiple Regression

What Techniques Can Tell Us

• Chi Square- • Do groups differ (nominal data)?• T Test• Do Groups/Variables differ?• Gamma/Lambda/Kendall’s Tau etc• Are variables related to each other? (nominal

data)• Correlation• Are variables related to each other?

(ratio/interval data)

Interpreting Correlations

• 3 questions we can answer

1. Is there a relationship between 2 variables?

2. What is the direction of the relationship?

3. What is the Strength of a relationship

Interpreting Correlations

• Are there limitations here? And if so, what?

• Don’t know amount of effect of one variable on other

• Don’t know impact of other variables

Basic Equations

• Let your DV (Y)= total cost of bananas• Suppose you buy X lbs of bananas at $.49 a lb• How would you express this as an equation to

figure out how much your bananas are worth?• Y=.49 X• Can use for prediction• 10lbs=$4.90• 2lbs=$.98

Multivariate Equations

• Suppose you have a phone plan that charges – $5.95 a month– $.10 a minute instate long distance– $.08 a minute interstate long distance– $.01 a minute Local Calls

• How would you represent?

• Total=.1x1+.08x2+.01x3+5.95

Regression Analysis

• Lets you work the problem Backwards

• How much do different IVs contribute to a DV

• How do different IVs relate to DV

• Lets you build a model of more complicated relationships

• In addition to existence, direction, strength, gives you the amount of change

Expressing A regression equation

• Y=b1x1+b2x2+…..bixi+constant+error

• Error is part of probabilistic nature of social science

• Constant- what Y would equal if all Xs=0

• Estimation process- fit a line to data that minimizes the distance to all observed data points

Scatter Plots and Regression Lines

• PID and Ideology • Correlation here is .37, not bad, but you can see,

there are deviations in some cases

Fitting the Regression Line

• Goal: Minimize the squared distances (error) between predicted values of Y and observed values.

• Goal, explain the variance in Y in terms of X

• Error in prediction is unexplained variance

Party and Ideology

• Set up PID as DV, Ideology as IV, run analysis• Can also do Ideology as DV

Goodness of Fit

• Measure of how much variance is explained by model you build

• R2= correlation coefficient squared • R2= proportion of variance explained• R2 is symetrical• In previous example R2 = .256• R2 ranges from 0-1• Adjusted R2 takes into account the degrees of

freedom, more appropriate measure

Run for the Border Using Multiple Regression

• Suppose that you and some friends ate at Taco bell every week for a year.

• For each meal, you know the total amount spent, and the number of each item, but not what each item cost.

• You could use multiple regression to get parameter estimates of the true values.

• Data set was constructed by choosing a random number (Between 0 and 4) of Bean Burritos, Tacos, Chalupas, Chicken Tacos, Beef Burritos, 7 Layer Burritos, and Soft drinks

• Data matrix includes a variable for number of each

Border Model 1

• We’ll look at impact of bean burritos on total

Some Data Requirements for Regression

• DV must be interval or ratio, and continuous

• IVs should not be correlated with each other

• Error should be constant at high and low predicted value (homoschedasticity)

• Relationship must be linear• Errors of subsequent observations should

not be correlated (no serial correlation)

For Next time

• Multicolinearity

• Heteroskedasticity

• Interaction terms

• Pass out Stat Assignment II
