Multiple Regression: Group No 6 Niwas Kumar Sukanya Srivastava Pratyush Dube

Multiple regression allows analysis of a dependent variable's relationship to multiple independent variables. It can model nonlinear relationships and include both quantitative and qualitative independent variables. There are different methods for entering independent variables, such as standard entry where all are entered at once, hierarchical entry where variables are entered in a prescribed order, and stepwise entry where variables are entered based on their statistical contribution. The purpose of multiple regression is to better understand relationships between predictor and criterion variables through fitting a line to data points. It is mainly used for prediction and forecasting. The example variables given are unemployment rate and export as independent variables influencing GDP as the dependent variable. The regression equation for two explanatory variables is written as Y = α + β1X1 + β

MULTIPLE REGRESSION?

Multiple regression is a flexible method of data


analysis that may be appropriate whenever a
quantitative variable (the dependent or criterion
variable) is to be examined in relationship to any
other factors (expressed as independent or
predictor variables). Relationships may be
nonlinear, independent variables may be
quantitative or qualitative.
DIFFERENT METHODS FOR ENTERING
VARIABLES IN MULTIPLE REGRESSION
 Different types of multiple regression are distinguished
by the method for entering the independent variables into
the analysis.

 In standard (or simultaneous) multiple regression, all of


the independent variables are entered into the analysis at
the same.

 In hierarchical (or sequential) multiple regression, the


independent variables are entered in an order prescribed
by the analyst. Slide

IN STEPWISE (OR STATISTICAL) MULTIPLE
REGRESSION, THE INDEPENDENT VARIABLES ARE
ENTERED ACCORDING TO THEIR STATISTICAL
CONTRIBUTION IN EXPLAINING THE VARIANCE IN
THE DEPENDENT VARIABLE.

NO MATTER WHAT METHOD OF ENTRY IS CHOSEN, A


MULTIPLE REGRESSION THAT INCLUDES THE SAME
INDEPENDENT VARIABLES AND THE SAME
DEPENDENT VARIABLES WILL PRODUCE THE SAME
MULTIPLE REGRESSION EQUATION.

THE NUMBER OF CASES REQUIRED FOR STEPWISE


REGRESSION IS GREATER THAN THE NUMBER FOR
THE OTHER FORMS. WE WILL USE THE NORM OF 40
CASES FOR EACH INDEPENDENT VARIABLE.
PURPOSE OF MULTI
REGRESSION

The general purpose of multiple regression is to


learn more about the relationship between
several independent or predictor variables and a
dependent or criterion variable.
The general computational problem that needs to
be solved in multiple regression analysis is to fit a
straight line to a number of points.
Mainly used for predicting and forecasting.
VARIABLES –
1. Unemployment rate of Hungary
2. GDP of Hungary
3. Export of Hungary

• In these variable Unemployment rate and


export are independent from each other.

• GDP is dependent variable. It depends on


Unemployment rate and Export.
REGRESSION EQUATION-
The principles of Simple Regression Analysis can be extended to
two or more explanatory variables.

With two explanatory variables we get an equation


Y = α + β1X1 + β2X2.
