Question

14.15)

the computer output given here is the result of a stepwise multiple regression analysis to predict a dependent variable by using six predictor variables. The number of observations was 108. Study the output and discuss the results. How many predictors ended up in the model ? which predictors, if any, did not enter the model?

STEPWISE        REGRESSION OF   Y ON 6   PREDICTORS, WITH N =       108

STEP                           1                        2                      3                       4

CONSTANT              8.71                 6.82                 6.57                  5.96

X3                            -2.85                 -4.92              -4.97                 -5.00

T-RATIO                   2.11                 2.94                3.04                 3.07

X1                                                      4.42                 3.72                3.22

T-RATIO                                            2.64                 2.20               2.05

X2                                                                            1.91                1.78

S                        3.81                      3.51                3.43                  3.36

R-SQ                 29.20                    49.45             54.72                59.29

THE ANSWERS 4 predictors ,x4 and x5 are not in model.

explain how we get the answer above if there is any culculation please do   Do not use Excel for solving or other program

Explanation / Answer

we don't need to do any calculation here

the stepwise regression shows the best linear regression at last step,

observe that with each step S is decreasing

Step 1 - include only x3

step 2 - include x3 and x1

step 3 - include x3,x1 and x2

step 4 - include x3,x1,x2 and x6

step 4 is best regression model

hence x4 and x5 are not included in it
