Question

In 2010, South Africa hosted 32 countries in the World Cup soccer tournament. Data were collected on team performance variables including the average number of goals scored per match (Goals), the shooting percentage (Shoot), the average number of passes per match (Pass), whether or not the team played in the 2006 World Cup (Exper = 1 if played, 0 if not), and whether or not the team is from Africa (Africa = 1 if from Africa, 0 if not). Build a model to predict the number of goals per match using the other variables in the data set. Is there evidence of a home-continent advantage in this World Cup? The data are in WorldCup.xlsx.

Question: conduct a complete analysis of the data. Keep in mind the main research question(s) of the given study but be sure to include a complete diagnostic analysis and justification for any model(s) you use in your analysis, (i.e. assess model assumptions and the impact of potentially influential observations). Be sure to clearly state specific model(s) you fit using the correct model notation or specification.

PLEASE USE SPSS

Explanation / Answer

We can use regresssion model to analysis this data set.

The model is

Goal = b0 + b1 Shoot + b2 Pass +b3 Exper +b4 Africa

The results are calculated by excel which is given below

No, there is not evidence of a home-continent advantage in this World Cup becuase p-value is less than greater the level of significance.
