Description
Multiple Regression: 2014 Edition (Statistical Associates Blue Book Series 6)
MULTIPLE REGRESSION
An illustrated tutorial and introduction to multiple linear regression analysis using SPSS, SAS, or Stata. Suitable for introductory graduate-level study.
The 2014 edition is a major update to the 2012 edition. Among the new features are these:
* Now includes worked examples for SPSS, SAS, and Stata.
* Was 180 pages with 70 illustrations, now 410 pages with over 300 illustrations.
* Thoroughly revised and updated throughout.
* Now covers quantile regression, needed for heterosccedastic models
* Now covers difference in differences regression.
* Now covers robust regression (not just regression w/ robust standard errors)
* Greatly expanded coverage of residual analysis.
* Greatly expanded coverage of model selection regression
* New section on plotting interactions through simple slope analysis
* Links to all datasets used in the text.
