  1. Interpreting Z-Scores of Linear Regression Coefficients

    Jul 11, 2022 · Well, under the hypothetical scenario that the true regression coefficient is equal to 0, statisticians have figured out how likely a given Z-score is (using the normal distribution …

  2. regression - What does it mean to regress a variable against …

    Dec 21, 2016 · Those words connote causality, but regression can work the other way round too (use Y to predict X). The independent/dependent variable language merely specifies how one …

    Aug 1, 2013 · the standardised regression coefficient is the same as Pearson's correlation coefficient The square of Pearson's correlation coefficient is the same as the R2 R 2 in simple …

  5. correlation - What is the difference between linear regression on y ...

    The Pearson correlation coefficient of x and y is the same, whether you compute pearson(x, y) or pearson(y, x). This suggests that doing a linear regression of y given x or x given y should be …

  6. regression - Why do we say the outcome variable "is regressed …

  8. regression - What are good RMSE values? - Cross Validated

    Apr 17, 2013 · I think you have two different types of questions there. One thing is what you ask in the title: "What are good RMSE values?" and another thing is how to compare models with …

  9. regression - What does negative R-squared mean? - Cross Validated

    Nov 24, 2015 · For the top set of points, the red ones, the regression line is the best possible regression line that also passes through the origin. It just happens that that regression line is …

  10. How does the correlation coefficient differ from regression slope?

    Jan 10, 2015 · The regression slope measures the "steepness" of the linear relationship between two variables and can take any value from $-\infty$ to $+\infty$. Slopes near zero mean that …
