Learning Outcomes |
1 | Comprehend how to report and evaluate the results of the model with respect to simple (2-variable) regression analysis. | 2 | Identify 2-variable regression model which is through the origin and know how to compute the coefficient of determination for this type of models. | 3 | Understand what the scaling, units of measurement and standardization of the variables amount to in regression analysis. | 4 | Know and interpret simple regression models in detail which are nonlinear in variables while linear in parameters. | 5 | Have the knowledge pertaining to the issues of estimation and statistical inference for multiple regression models. | 6 | Gain some experience about some applications of simple and multiple regression models. |
