Multiple Regression Model

 Multiple Regression Model


The equation that describes how the dependent
variable y is related to the independent variables x1,
x2, . . . xp and an error term is:

y = 0 + 1x1 + 2x2 + . . . + pxp + 

where:
0, 1, 2, . . . , p are the parameters, and
 is a random variable called the error term

Multiple Regression Equation

 Multiple Regression Equation


The equation that describes how the mean
value of y is related to x1, x2, . . . xp is:

E(y) = 0 + 1x1 + 2x2 + . . . + pxp

Estimated Multiple Regression Equation

 Estimated Multiple Regression Equation

^
y = b0 + b1x1 + b2x2 + . . . + bpxp

A simple random sample is used to compute sample


statistics b0, b1, b2, . . . , bp that are used as the point
estimators of the parameters 0, 1, 2, . . . , p.

Least Squares Method

 Least Squares Criterion

min  ( yi  yˆ i )2

 Computation of Coefficient Values


The formulas for the regression coefficients
b0, b1, b2, . . . bp involve the use of matrix algebra.
We will rely on computer software packages to
perform the calculations.

Multiple Regression Model

 Example: Programmer Salary Survey


A software firm collected data for a sample
of 20 computer programmers. A suggestion
was made that regression analysis could
be used to determine if salary was related
to the years of experience and the score
on the firm’s programmer aptitude test.
The years of experience, score on the aptitude
test, and corresponding annual salary ($1000s) for a
sample of 20 programmers is shown on the next
slide.

Multiple Regression Model

Suppose we believe that salary (y) is


related to the years of experience (x1) and the score on
the programmer aptitude test (x2) by the following
regression model:
y = 0 + 1x1 + 2x2 + 

where
y = annual salary ($1000)
x1 = years of experience
x2 = score on programmer aptitude test

Interpreting the Coefficients

In multiple regression analysis, we interpret each


regression coefficient as follows:

bi represents an estimate of the change in y


corresponding to a 1-unit increase in xi when all
other independent variables are held constant.

Qualitative Independent Variables

 Example: Programmer Salary Survey


As an extension of the problem involving the
computer programmer salary survey, suppose
that management also believes that the
annual salary is related to whether the
individual has a graduate degree in
computer science or information systems.
The years of experience, the score on the programmer
aptitude test, whether the individual has a relevant
graduate degree, and the annual salary ($1000) for each
of the sampled 20 programmers are shown on the next
slide.

Residual Analysis

 For simple linear regression the residual plot against


ŷ and the residual plot against x provide the same
information.
 In multiple regression analysis it is preferable to use
the residual plot against ŷ to determine if the model
assumptions are satisfied.

© 2008 Thomson South-Western. All Rights Reserved Slide


48
Standardized Residual Plot Against ŷ

 Standardized residuals are frequently used in


residual plots for purposes of:
• Identifying outliers (typically, standardized
residuals < -2 or > +2)
• Providing insight about the assumption that the
error term  has a normal distribution
 The computation of the standardized residuals in
multiple regression analysis is too complex to be
done by hand
 Excel’s Regression tool can be used

Logistic Regression

 In many ways logistic regression is like ordinary


regression. It requires a dependent variable, y, and
one or more independent variables.
 Logistic regression can be used to model situations in
which the dependent variable, y, may only assume
two discrete values, such as 0 and 1.
 The ordinary multiple regression model is not
applicable.

Logistic Regression

 Logistic Regression Equation


The relationship between E(y) and x1, x2, . . . , xp is
better described by the following nonlinear equation.

 0   1 x1   2 x2   p x p
e
E( y )   0   1 x1   2 x2   p x p

Logistic Regression

 Interpretation of E(y) as a
Probability in Logistic Regression
If the two values of y are coded as 0 or 1, the value
of E(y) provides the probability that y = 1 given a
particular set of values for x1, x2, . . . , xp.

A simple random sample is used to compute


sample statistics b0, b1, b2, . . . , bp that are used as the
point estimators of the parameters 0, 1, 2, . . . , p.

Logistic Regression

 Example: Simmons Stores


Simmons’ catalogs are expensive and Simmons
would like to send them to only those customers who
have the highest probability of making a $200 purchase
using the discount coupon included in the catalog.
Simmons’ management thinks that annual spending
at Simmons Stores and whether a customer has a
Simmons credit card are two variables that might be
helpful in predicting whether a customer who receives
the catalog will use the coupon to make a $200
purchase.

Logistic Regression

 Example: Simmons Stores


Simmons conducted a study by sending out 100
catalogs, 50 to customers who have a Simmons credit
card and 50 to customers who do not have the card.
At the end of the test period, Simmons noted for each of
the 100 customers:
1) the amount the customer spent last year at Simmons,
2) whether the customer had a Simmons credit card, and
3) whether the customer made a $200 purchase.
A portion of the test data is shown on the next slide.

Logistic Regression

 Testing for Significance

Conclusions For independent variable x1:


z = 2.66 and the p-value 
Hence, 1 = 0. In other words,
x1 is statistically significant.
For independent variable x2:
z = 2.47 and the p-value 
Hence, 2 = 0. In other words,
x2 is also statistically significant.

 Comparing Odds
Suppose we want to compare the odds of making a
$200 purchase for customers who spend $2000 annually
and have a Simmons credit card to the odds of making a
$200 purchase for customers who spend $2000 annually
and do not have a Simmons credit card.
