Question

Below is a portion from a stepwise regression analysis.

Any of the F statistics below can be computed via the formula:

F = (SSReg (Model A) – SSReg (Model B) ) / C

                MSResidual (Model A)

Identify what Model A, Model B and the constant C are in order to obtain the F = 1.33 value for the variable x8

Based on the information below for Step 6 of the stepwise selection procedure, what will be the next change in model, in Step 7 of the procedure? (In other words, will a particular term be dropped, or added, or will nothing occur? Assume that the significance level for entry and staying are = .15

Explanation / Answer

In step 7 variable X11 should be dropped as probabaility <0.007 which is less than 0.15.
