[ CROSS-SECTIONAL DATA ]
ASSOC PROF ERGIN AKALPLER
Learning Objectives
 Explain the linear multiple regression model [for cross-
sectional data]
 Interpret linear multiple regression computer output
 Explain multicollinearity
 Describe the types of multiple regression models
Regression Modeling Steps
 Define problem or question
 Specify model
 Collect data
 Do descriptive data analysis
 Estimate unknown parameters
 Evaluate model
Use model for prediction
Y-hat = 0 + 1x1 + 2x2 + ... + PxP + 
Simple vs. Multiple
  represents the
unit change in Y
per unit change in
X .
 Does not take into
account any other
variable besides
single independent
variable.
 i represents the unit
change in Y per unit
change in Xi. Multiple
variable
 Takes into account
the effect of other
i s.
 “Net regression
coefficient.”
Assumptions
Linearity - the Y variable is linearly related
to the value of the X variable.
Independence of Error - the error
(residual) is independent for each value of X.
Homoscedasticity - the variation around
the line of regression be constant for all
values of X.
Normality - the values of Y be normally
distributed at each value of X.
Regression to be performed with hypothesis
Ho: γ= 0 Yt becomes non-stationary
H1: γ≠ 0 Yt is significant
(all variables must become significant at level)
And for residuals,
Ho: γ= 0 Yt residuals are not serially correlated and not
heteroscedastic and normally distributed
H1: γ≠ 0 Yt residuals are serially correlated,
heteroscedastic and not normally distributed.
Best regression model
null, Ho= residuals are not serially corelated
alt, H1= residuals are serially corelated
 R2 value must be high
(it should be 60% and more for good model)
 No serial correlation
(LM test probability value must be higher than 0.05 )
 No hetroscedasticity
(in the residual p value must be highe than 0.05)
Residual are normally distributed
(histogram p value must be higher than 0.05)

Goal
Develop a statistical model
that can predict the values of
a dependent (response)
variable based upon the
values of the independent
(explanatory) variables.
Simple Regression
A statistical model that utilizes
one quantitative independent
variable “X” to predict the
quantitative dependent
variable “Y.”

For ols results
 Coefficient signs explains the direction of relation between explanatory and
dependent variables
 The standard error of a coefficient indicates the accuracy of the estimated
ordinary least squares (OLS) coefficient with respect to its population
parameter. Each standard error is the square root of the variance of the
corresponding coefficient.
 t-test is a statistical hypothesis testing technique that is used to test the
linearity of the relationship between the response variable and different
predictor variables. In other words, it is used to determine whether or not
there is a linear correlation between the response and predictor variables.
The t-test helps to determine if this linear relationship is statistically
significant
 it is estimated by dividing the coefficient to the st error
 t stats= coefficient/ st error
Ols results
 Probability value must be between zero and 0.05 to be
significant model.
 The p-value for each term tests the null hypothesis that
the coefficient is equal to zero (no effect).
 A low p-value (< 0.05) indicates that you can reject the
null hypothesis. In other words, a predictor that has a
low p-value is likely to be a meaningful addition to your
model because changes in the predictor's value are
related to changes in the response variable.
 Ho residual are not normally distributed
Ols results
 R2 value explain how many percentage of Y
dependent variable will be explained by
explanatory variables X. The effects of
independent variables on dependent variable
 Adjusted R2 can increase or decrease the
independent variable. Too many explanatory
variable may cause negative sign.

Ols results
 F statistic this statistic tells how jointly
significant explanatory variables affect
dependent variable
The higher the F value the better the model
 Probability statistics lower the value the
better the model. It tells the statistically
significance of the model.
Ols results
 Mean dependent variable is the average value
of the dependent variable
 AIC SIC and HQC are used to choose the best
model the lower the value the better the
model AIC here is the lowest value gives us
the best model to adop for model
 Durbin Watson stats tell the serial correlation,
if the DW is less than two it is the evidence of
positive serial correlation and the model is
suffering from serial correlation.
Multiple Regression
A statistical model that utilizes two
or more quantitative and qualitative
explanatory variables (x1,..., xp) to
predict a quantitative dependent
variable Y.
Caution: have at least two or more quantitative
explanatory variables (rule of thumb)
Multiple regression
 Multiple regression is a statistical technique that
can be used to analyze the relationship between
a single dependent variable and several
independent variables. The objective of multiple
regression analysis is to use the independent
variables whose values are known to predict the
value of the single dependent value.
Multiple regression assumptions
 Assumption #1: Your dependent variable should
be measured on a continuous scale (i.e., it is either
an interval or ratio variable). Examples of variables
that meet this criterion include revision time
(measured in hours), intelligence (measured using IQ
score), exam performance (measured from 0 to 100),
weight (measured in kg), and so forth
Multiple regression assumptions
 Assumption #2: You have two or more
independent variables, which can be
either continuous (i.e., an interval or ratio variable)
or categorical (i.e., an ordinal or nominal variable).
For examples of continuous and ordinal variables,
see the bullet above. Examples of nominal
variables include gender (e.g., 2 groups: male and
female), ethnicity
Multiple regression
assumptions
 Assumption #3: You should
have independence of
observations (i.e., independence of
residuals), which you can easily check using
the Durbin-Watson statistic,
Multiple regression
assumptions
 Assumption #4: There needs to be a linear
relationship between (a) the dependent
variable and each of your independent
variables, and (b) the dependent variable and
the independent variables collectively.
Whilst there are a number of ways to check
for these linear relationships,
Multiple regression
assumptions
 Assumption #5: Your data needs to
show homoscedasticity, which is where the
variances along the line of best fit remain similar
as you move along the line. We explain more
about what this means and how to assess the
homoscedasticity of your data in our enhanced
multiple regression guide.
Multiple regression assumptions
 Assumption #6: Your data must not
show multicollinearity (ne realtion
between variables), which occurs when you
have two or more independent variables that
are highly correlated with each other. This
leads to problems with understanding which
independent variable contributes to the
variance explained in the dependent variable,
as well as technical issues in calculating a
multiple regression model.
Multiple regression
assumptions
 Assumption #7: There should be no significant
outliers, high leverage points or highly
influential points.
Multiple regression
assumptions
 Finally, you need to check that the residuals
(errors) are approximately normally
distributed (we explain these terms in our
enhanced multiple regression guide).

family home in the month of
January based on average
temperature and amount of

Multicollinearity
 It is the occurrence of high
intercorrelations among two or
more independent variables in
a multiple regression model.
Multicolinearity is a problem
 Multicollinearity is a problem because it
produces regression model results that are
less reliable.
 This is due to wider confidence intervals
(larger standard errors) that
 can lower the statistical significance of
regression coefficients.
Multicollinearity
 High correlation between X variables
 Coefficients measure combined effect
 Leads to unstable coefficients depending on X
variables in model
 Always exists; matter of degree
 Example: Using both total number of rooms and
number of bedrooms as explanatory variables in same
model (independent variables)
Detecting Multicollinearity
 Examine correlation matrix
 Correlations between pairs of X variables are more
than with Y variable
 Few solution (remedies)
 Obtain new sample data
 Eliminate one correlated X variable
Evaluating Multiple Regression Model Steps
 Examine variation measures
 Do residual analysis
 Test parameter significance
Overall model
Portions of model
Individual coefficients
 Test for multicollinearity

The Difference between Linear and Nonlinear
Regression Models
 The Difference between Linear and Nonlinear
Regression Models
 The difference between linear and nonlinear
regression models isn’t as straightforward as it
sounds.
 You’d think that linear equations produce straight
lines and nonlinear equations model curvature.
Unfortunately, that’s not correct.
Linear Regression Equations
 A linear regression model follows a very particular
form. In statistics, a regression model is linear
when all terms in the model are one of the
following:
 The constant
 A parameter multiplied by an independent
variable (IV)
 Then, you build the equation by only adding the
terms together. These rules limit the form to just
one type:
Linear regression
 Then, you build the equation by only adding the terms
together. These rules limit the form to just one type:
 Dependent variable = constant + parameter * IV + … +
parameter * IV
The regression example below models the relationship between body mass
index (BMI) and body fat percent.
In a different blog post, I use this model to show how to make predictions
with regression analysis.
It is a linear model that uses a quadratic (squared) term to model the
curved relationship.
Nonlinear Regression Equations
 I showed how linear regression models have
one basic configuration.
 Now, we’ll focus on the “non” in nonlinear! If a
regression equation doesn’t follow the rules for
a linear model, then it must be a nonlinear
model.
 It’s that simple! A nonlinear model is literally
not linear.
Non linear regression
 Consequently, nonlinear regression can fit
an enormous variety of curves.
 However, because there are so many
candidates, you may need to conduct some
research to determine which functional
form provides the best fit for your data.
Non linear regression  Beside, I present a handful of
examples that illustrate the
diversity of nonlinear regression
models. Keep in mind that each
function can fit a variety of
shapes, and there are many
nonlinear functions. Also, notice
how nonlinear regression
equations are not comprised of
only addition and multiplication!
In
 the table, thetas (dependent)
are the parameters, and
 Xs are the independent variables.
non Linear Models
 Non-linear models that can be expressed in
linear form
Can be estimated by least square in
linear form
 Require data transformation

  • 8. Sample Model with hypo for ols 
  • 9. Goal Develop a statistical model that can predict the values of a dependent (response) variable based upon the values of the independent (explanatory) variables.
  • 10. Simple Regression A statistical model that utilizes one quantitative independent variable “X” to predict the quantitative dependent variable “Y.”
  • 11. Ols interpretation Variables Coefficient St error T stats Prob. C -3188845 1822720 -1.749487 0.0866 Income 0.819235 0.003190 256,7871 0.0000 R2 0.999 Mean dependency 3522.160 Adjusted R 0.9999 St dependent var. 3077,678 SE of Reg 82.86681 Akaike info criterion 11,73539 Sum square resid 337614,8 Schwarz criterion 11.87820 Log likelihood -292,3779 Hanna quin criterion 1176500 F stats 65939.59 Durbin Watson stats 0.568044 Prob 0.0000
  • 12. For ols results  Coefficient signs explains the direction of relation between explanatory and dependent variables  The standard error of a coefficient indicates the accuracy of the estimated ordinary least squares (OLS) coefficient with respect to its population parameter. Each standard error is the square root of the variance of the corresponding coefficient.  t-test is a statistical hypothesis testing technique that is used to test the linearity of the relationship between the response variable and different predictor variables. In other words, it is used to determine whether or not there is a linear correlation between the response and predictor variables. The t-test helps to determine if this linear relationship is statistically significant  it is estimated by dividing the coefficient to the st error  t stats= coefficient/ st error
  • 13. Ols results  Probability value must be between zero and 0.05 to be significant model.  The p-value for each term tests the null hypothesis that the coefficient is equal to zero (no effect).  A low p-value (< 0.05) indicates that you can reject the null hypothesis. In other words, a predictor that has a low p-value is likely to be a meaningful addition to your model because changes in the predictor's value are related to changes in the response variable.  Ho residual are not normally distributed
  • 14. Ols results  R2 value explain how many percentage of Y dependent variable will be explained by explanatory variables X. The effects of independent variables on dependent variable  Adjusted R2 can increase or decrease the independent variable. Too many explanatory variable may cause negative sign. 
  • 15. Ols results  F statistic this statistic tells how jointly significant explanatory variables affect dependent variable The higher the F value the better the model  Probability statistics lower the value the better the model. It tells the statistically significance of the model.
  • 16. Ols results  Mean dependent variable is the average value of the dependent variable  AIC SIC and HQC are used to choose the best model the lower the value the better the model AIC here is the lowest value gives us the best model to adop for model  Durbin Watson stats tell the serial correlation, if the DW is less than two it is the evidence of positive serial correlation and the model is suffering from serial correlation.
  • 17. Multiple Regression A statistical model that utilizes two or more quantitative and qualitative explanatory variables (x1,..., xp) to predict a quantitative dependent variable Y. Caution: have at least two or more quantitative explanatory variables (rule of thumb)
  • 18. Multiple regression  Multiple regression is a statistical technique that can be used to analyze the relationship between a single dependent variable and several independent variables. The objective of multiple regression analysis is to use the independent variables whose values are known to predict the value of the single dependent value.
  • 19. Multiple regression assumptions  Assumption #1: Your dependent variable should be measured on a continuous scale (i.e., it is either an interval or ratio variable). Examples of variables that meet this criterion include revision time (measured in hours), intelligence (measured using IQ score), exam performance (measured from 0 to 100), weight (measured in kg), and so forth
  • 20. Multiple regression assumptions  Assumption #2: You have two or more independent variables, which can be either continuous (i.e., an interval or ratio variable) or categorical (i.e., an ordinal or nominal variable). For examples of continuous and ordinal variables, see the bullet above. Examples of nominal variables include gender (e.g., 2 groups: male and female), ethnicity
  • 21. Multiple regression assumptions  Assumption #3: You should have independence of observations (i.e., independence of residuals), which you can easily check using the Durbin-Watson statistic,
  • 22. Multiple regression assumptions  Assumption #4: There needs to be a linear relationship between (a) the dependent variable and each of your independent variables, and (b) the dependent variable and the independent variables collectively. Whilst there are a number of ways to check for these linear relationships,
  • 23. Multiple regression assumptions  Assumption #5: Your data needs to show homoscedasticity, which is where the variances along the line of best fit remain similar as you move along the line. We explain more about what this means and how to assess the homoscedasticity of your data in our enhanced multiple regression guide.
  • 24. Multiple regression assumptions  Assumption #6: Your data must not show multicollinearity (ne realtion between variables), which occurs when you have two or more independent variables that are highly correlated with each other. This leads to problems with understanding which independent variable contributes to the variance explained in the dependent variable, as well as technical issues in calculating a multiple regression model.
  • 25. Multiple regression assumptions  Assumption #7: There should be no significant outliers, high leverage points or highly influential points.
  • 26. Multiple regression assumptions  Finally, you need to check that the residuals (errors) are approximately normally distributed (we explain these terms in our enhanced multiple regression guide). Estimate histogram ;  (p value must be higher than 0.05)
  • 27. Multiple Regression Model more than two variables X2 X1 Y e
  • 28. Hypotheses  H0: 1 = 2 = 3 = ... = P = 0  H1: At least one regression coefficient is not equal to zero
  • 29. Hypotheses (alternate format) H0: i = 0 H1: i  0
  • 30. Types of Models  Positive linear relationship  Negative linear relationship  No relationship between X and Y  Positive curvilinear relationship  U-shaped curvilinear  Negative curvilinear relationship

[ caution … ]  For each incremental increase in degree F of temperature, for a given amount of attic insulation, heating oil consumption drops 5.44 gallons. For each incremental increase in inches of attic insulation, at a given temperature, heating oil consumption drops 20.01 gallons.

  • 80. The Difference between Linear and Nonlinear Regression Models  The Difference between Linear and Nonlinear Regression Models  The difference between linear and nonlinear regression models isn’t as straightforward as it sounds.  You’d think that linear equations produce straight lines and nonlinear equations model curvature. Unfortunately, that’s not correct.
  • 81. Linear Regression Equations  A linear regression model follows a very particular form. In statistics, a regression model is linear when all terms in the model are one of the following:  The constant  A parameter multiplied by an independent variable (IV)  Then, you build the equation by only adding the terms together. These rules limit the form to just one type:
  • 82. Linear regression  Then, you build the equation by only adding the terms together. These rules limit the form to just one type:  Dependent variable = constant + parameter * IV + … + parameter * IV
  • 83. The regression example below models the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and body fat percent. In a different blog post, I use this model to show how to make predictions with regression analysis. It is a linear model that uses a quadratic (squared) term to model the curved relationship.
  • 84. Nonlinear Regression Equations  I showed how linear regression models have one basic configuration.  Now, we’ll focus on the “non” in nonlinear! If a regression equation doesn’t follow the rules for a linear model, then it must be a nonlinear model.  It’s that simple! A nonlinear model is literally not linear.
  • 85. Non linear regression  Consequently, nonlinear regression can fit an enormous variety of curves.  However, because there are so many candidates, you may need to conduct some research to determine which functional form provides the best fit for your data.
  • 86. Non linear regression  Beside, I present a handful of examples that illustrate the diversity of nonlinear regression models. Keep in mind that each function can fit a variety of shapes, and there are many nonlinear functions. Also, notice how nonlinear regression equations are not comprised of only addition and multiplication! In  the table, thetas (dependent) are the parameters, and  Xs are the independent variables.
