[3] Damodar Gujarati writes that "we should rightly accept [our data] are sometimes not very informative about parameters of interest". [1] Olivier Blanchard quips that "multicollinearity is God's will, not a problem with OLS"; [7] in other words, when working with observational data, researchers cannot "fix" multicollinearity, only accept it.
This is the problem of multicollinearity in moderated regression. Multicollinearity tends to cause coefficients to be estimated with higher standard errors and hence greater uncertainty. Mean-centering (subtracting raw scores from the mean) may reduce multicollinearity, resulting in more interpretable regression coefficients.
[28] [29] Bartlett's test for heteroscedasticity between grouped data, used most commonly in the univariate case, has also been extended for the multivariate case, but a tractable solution only exists for 2 groups. [30] Approximations exist for more than two groups, and they are both called Box's M test.
Ridge regression is a method of estimating the coefficients of multiple-regression models in scenarios where the independent variables are highly correlated. [1] It has been used in many fields including econometrics, chemistry, and engineering. [2]
This means that if the various observations (X 1i, X 2i) are plotted in the (X 1, X 2) plane, these points are collinear in the sense defined earlier in this article. Perfect multicollinearity refers to a situation in which k (k ≥ 2) explanatory variables in a multiple regression model are perfectly linearly related, according to
In statistics, the autocorrelation of a real or complex random process is the Pearson correlation between values of the process at different times, as a function of the two times or of the time lag.
Condition numbers can also be defined for nonlinear functions, and can be computed using calculus.The condition number varies with the point; in some cases one can use the maximum (or supremum) condition number over the domain of the function or domain of the question as an overall condition number, while in other cases the condition number at a particular point is of more interest.
This makes the fitted model likely to pass close to a high leverage observation. [1] Hence high-leverage points have the potential to cause large changes in the parameter estimates when they are deleted i.e., to be influential points. Although an influential point will typically have high leverage, a high leverage point is not necessarily an ...
