  2. Regression analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regression_analysis

    One method conjectured by Good and Hardin is =, where is the sample size, is the number of independent variables and is the number of observations needed to reach the desired precision if the model had only one independent variable. [22] For example, a researcher is building a linear regression model using a dataset that contains 1000 patients ().

  3. Bivariate analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bivariate_analysis

    Bivariate analysis is one of the simplest forms of quantitative (statistical) analysis. [1] It involves the analysis of two variables (often denoted as X, Y), for the purpose of determining the empirical relationship between them. [1] Bivariate analysis can be helpful in testing simple hypotheses of association.

  4. Linear regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_regression

    t. e. In statistics, linear regression is a statistical model which estimates the linear relationship between a scalar response (dependent variable) and one or more explanatory variables (regressor or independent variable). The case of one explanatory variable is called simple linear regression; for more than one, the process is called multiple ...

  5. Bivariate data - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bivariate_data

    Bivariate data. In statistics, bivariate data is data on each of two variables, where each value of one of the variables is paired with a value of the other variable. [1] It is a specific but very common case of multivariate data. The association can be studied via a tabular or graphical display, or via sample statistics which might be used for ...

  6. Dependent and independent variables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dependent_and_independent...

    Dependent and independent variables. A variable is considered dependent if it depends on an independent variable. Dependent variables are studied under the supposition or demand that they depend, by some law or rule (e.g., by a mathematical function), on the values of other variables. Independent variables, in turn, are not seen as depending on ...

  7. Simple linear regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_linear_regression

    v. t. e. In statistics, simple linear regression (SLR) is a linear regression model with a single explanatory variable. [1][2][3][4][5] That is, it concerns two-dimensional sample points with one independent variable and one dependent variable (conventionally, the x and y coordinates in a Cartesian coordinate system) and finds a linear function ...

  8. Analysis of covariance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analysis_of_covariance

    Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) is a general linear model that blends ANOVA and regression. ANCOVA evaluates whether the means of a dependent variable (DV) are equal across levels of one or more categorical independent variables (IV) and across one or more continuous variables. For example, the categorical variable (s) might describe treatment ...

  9. Contingency table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contingency_table

    In statistics, a contingency table (also known as a cross tabulation or crosstab) is a type of table in a matrix format that displays the multivariate frequency distribution of the variables. They are heavily used in survey research, business intelligence, engineering, and scientific research. They provide a basic picture of the interrelation ...
