CONCEPTS IN REGRESSION ANALYSIS

Abstract

Regression analysis is a set of statistical techniques that may be used to make judgements about the relationships between variables. Regression analysis is now the most widely used data analysis tool, with applications in practically every field of study, including social, physical and Biological Sciences, business and engineering. As a result, the purpose of this text is to develop the underlying theory of this key statistical method and to illustrate it with examples drawn from economics, demography, engineering and biology
