Frequently Asked Questions

What is multiple regression analysis?
Multiple regression analysis examines the relationship between one dependent variable and multiple independent variables. It helps predict outcomes, identify significant predictors, and quantify the strength of relationships while controlling for other variables. The model provides R² (variance explained), regression coefficients, and statistical significance tests.
When to use logistic regression vs linear regression?
Use logistic regression when the dependent variable is binary (yes/no, success/failure) or categorical. Use linear regression when the dependent variable is continuous. Logistic regression models probabilities using the logit link function and provides odds ratios for interpretation.
How to interpret correlation coefficients?
Correlation coefficients range from -1 to +1. Values near ±1 indicate strong linear relationships, values near 0 indicate weak relationships. Positive values show direct relationships (as one increases, the other increases), negative values show inverse relationships. Consider both magnitude and statistical significance.
What is Principal Component Analysis (PCA) used for?
PCA reduces dimensionality by creating new variables (principal components) that capture maximum variance in the data. It's used for data visualization, noise reduction, feature extraction, and identifying patterns in high-dimensional data. The first few components often explain most of the variance.
