Sample Correlation Coefficient: X Value and Is Called The Simple Regression Equation

(1) There are two main ways to describe relationships between variables: visualize and quantify relationships using correlation analysis, or create mathematical models using regression. (2) Correlation analysis uses the Pearson correlation coefficient to quantify linear relationships between two variables. Regression analysis uses a linear model (y=β0+β1x+ε) to measure relationships and predict values of the dependent variable (Y) based on the independent variable (X). (3) Key assumptions of the ordinary least squares regression model include normally distributed errors with constant variance that are independent of each other. Regression outputs include slope, intercept, and confidence intervals which are used to test hypotheses about population parameters.

How to describe and summarize relationships between variables: (1) Visualize, describe, and quantify the relationships between

variables or (2) Create mathematical models to


describe the relationships between variables.
Correlation Analysis Regression models
To quantify the relationship between variables, we can use the sample To measure the relationship between variables, we can use the linear model

and the regression model without the error 𝜖 term represents the expected value of Y for a given
Test the hypothesis 𝐻0 : 𝜌 = 0 x value and is called the simple regression equation: 𝐸(𝑌|𝑥) = 𝛽0 + 𝛽1 × 𝑥
To assess this regression model, we are customary to use the ordinary least squares method
(OLS). Assumptions of errors for this regression model, although not observable:
• Errors are normally distributed.
• Errors have constant variance.
• Errors are independent of each other.
