For ||the ||Multiple ||Regression, ||what ||is ||the ||variable ||selection? ||- ||correct ||answer ||✔Number ||of ||observations ||(or ||sample ||size ||= ||n), ||should ||be ||at ||least ||twice ||the ||number ||of ||predictors ||in ||the ||model. For ||the ||multiple ||regression, ||what ||is ||the ||model ||selection? ||- ||correct ||answer ||✔- ||All-subsets ||vs. ||Stepwise ||(forward, ||backward)

  • ||R^2, ||adjusted ||R^, ||and ||Mallow's ||Cp For ||the ||Multiple ||regression, ||what ||is ||the ||multicollinearity? ||- ||correct ||answer ||✔It ||is ||a ||strong ||linear ||relationship ||between ||values ||of ||the ||predictor ||variables For ||the ||multiple ||regression, ||what ||does ||multicollinearity ||causes? ||- ||correct ||answer ||✔It ||can ||cause ||instability ||of ||estimated ||coefficients ||as ||well ||as ||other ||problems For ||the ||multiple ||regression, ||what ||is ||diagnosis? ||- ||correct ||answer ||✔It ||is ||computing ||the ||R2 ||values ||for ||regressions ||in ||which ||the ||dependent ||variables ||is ||taken ||to ||be ||one ||of ||the ||k ||x's ||and ||the ||predictors ||are ||the ||remaining ||(k-1) ||x's. For ||the ||multipe ||regression, ||what ||happends ||when ||the ||diagnosis ||R2 ||is ||large? ||- ||correct ||answer ||✔If ||it ||close ||to ||1, ||then ||it ||proves ||that ||the ||multicollinearity ||exists. What ||are ||the ||four ||common ||types ||of ||biological ||data? ||- ||correct ||answer ||✔- ||Nominal ||(categorical)

(Used ||to ||test ||whether ||individuals ||that ||have ||one ||characteristic ||also ||tend ||to ||have ||another ||one)

  • ||Comparison ||of ||proportions (Used ||to ||test ||whether ||the ||proportion ||of ||individuals ||with ||some ||characteristics ||are ||same ||in ||different ||populations What ||are ||the ||assumptions ||of ||chi-square ||test? ||- ||correct ||answer ||✔- ||Random ||samples
  • ||Independent ||observations ||on ||one ||or ||more ||categories.
  • ||Chi-square ||test ||requires ||numerical ||values ||(counts), ||NOT ||PERCENTAGES ||OR ||RATIO.
  • ||Chi-square ||should ||not ||be ||calculated ||if ||the ||expected ||value ||in ||any ||category ||is ||less ||than || 5
  • ||Adequate ||sample ||size For ||the ||chi-square ||testing, ||the ||univariate ||categorical ||data ||are ||conveniently ||summarized ||in ||what? ||- ||correct ||answer ||✔one-way ||frequency ||table For ||the ||chi-square ||testing, ||if ||there ||are ||two ||different ||categorical ||variables, ||what ||happends? ||- ||correct ||answer ||✔You ||will ||get ||a ||two-way ||frequency ||table, ||which ||is ||call ||a ||contingency ||table

For ||the ||Chi-square ||Distribution, ||the ||chi-square ||curve ||has ||no ||area ||associated ||with ||what ||kind ||of ||value? ||- ||correct ||answer ||✔Negative For ||the ||chi-square ||distribution, ||what ||kind ||of ||symmetry ||does ||the ||chi-curve ||have? ||- ||correct ||answer ||✔Asymmetric For ||the ||chi-square ||distribution, ||what ||is ||the ||chi-square ||curve ||defined ||by? ||- ||correct ||answer ||✔df ||(degree ||of ||freedom) For ||the ||chi-square ||testing, ||when ||the ||Ho ||is ||true ||the ||expected ||counts ||should ||be ||at ||least ||what? ||- ||correct ||answer ||✔ 5 What ||are ||the ||steps ||for ||solving ||chi-square ||test? ||- ||correct ||answer ||✔1. ||Write ||the ||observed ||frequencies ||in ||column ||O
