Cross-validation is the process of assessing how the results of a statistical analysis will generalize to an independent data set. If the model has been estimated over some, but not all, of the available data, then the model using the estimated parameters can be used to predict the held-back data.
Includes techniques for fixed and random effects analysis, fixed and mixed effects meta-regression, forest and funnel plots, tests for funnel plot asymmetry, trim-and-fill and fail-safe N analysis. Network: Explore the connections between variables organised as a network. Network Analysis allows the user to analyze the network structure.
A regression diagnostic may take the form of a graphical result, informal quantitative results or a formal statistical hypothesis test, [2] each of which provides guidance for further stages of a regression analysis.
Previously when assessing a dataset before running a linear regression, the possibility of outliers would be assessed using histograms and scatterplots. Both methods of assessing data points were subjective and there was little way of knowing how much leverage each potential outlier had on the results data.
First, regression analysis is widely used for prediction and forecasting, where its use has substantial overlap with the field of machine learning. Second, in some situations regression analysis can be used to infer causal relationships between the independent and dependent variables. Importantly, regressions by themselves only reveal ...
Statistical analysis using logistic regression of Grade on GPA, Tuce and Psi was conducted in SPSS using Stepwise Logistic Regression. In the output, the "block" line relates to Chi-Square test on the set of independent variables that are tested and included in the model fitting.
IDA (Interactive Data Analysis) [25] was a software package that originated at what was formerly the National Opinion Research Center , at the University of Chicago. Initially offered on the HP-2000, [26] somewhat later, under the ownership of SPSS, it was also available on MUSIC/SP. [27] Regression analysis was one of IDA's strong points. [26]
Standardization of the coefficient is usually done to answer the question of which of the independent variables have a greater effect on the dependent variable in a multiple regression analysis where the variables are measured in different units of measurement (for example, income measured in dollars and family size measured in number of individuals).
