correct answers 2024




I am using x to predict y. When I know the value of x, the mean-squared-error of my estimate
of y is less than when I don't know x. - answers-x explains some of the variance in y


If the SSmodel is greater than the SSresidual... - answers-the model accounts for more than
50% of the total variance


What is the coefficient of determination? - answers-The proportion of variance accounted for
in the dependent variable by the predictor variables.


What is the relationship between r and beta in a simple regression? - answers-beta is an
unstandardised measure of r


What is the critical value for t with 5 degrees of freedom and an alpha of 0.05 two-tailed?
Give your answer to 2 decimal places. - answers-2.57


You have the following data:
x = c(10,3,2,1,3,4,5,6)
y = c(2,14,18,12,10,11,8,9)
You run a linear model and get the following estimate of the slope:

^B1 = -1.423


What is the standardised beta? Report to 2 decimal place - answers--0.86


If I have a lot of error in my regression model, it means that: - answers-There are big
differences between the line specified by my model and the corresponding points on the
scatterplot.


If the beta for your x term in a regression model is negative, it means: - answers-That there
as x increases, y decreases.


I conduct a study to investigate whether average hours of sleep per nigh (x) predicts sick
days per year (y). I find the follow values for the intercept and slope:


B0 = 25
B1 = -1.6


True or false, the following is the correct interpretation of the intercept:
A person who sleeps 0 hours on average per night is expected to have 24 sick days per
year. - answers-False

I conduct a study to investigate whether average hours of sleep per nigh (x) predicts sick
days per year (y). I find the follow values for the intercept and slope:


B0 = 25
B1 = -1.6


True or false, the following is the correct interpretation of the slope:
For every hour of sleep a person has on average per night, the number of sick days per year
decreases by 1.6 days. - answers-True


What is the critical value for t with 5 degrees of freedom and an alpha of 0.01 two-tailed?
Give your answer to 2 decimal places in the form X.XX - answers-4.03


You run a linear model with a single binary predictor. The intercept for the model is 110, and
the unstandardized beta is 17.1. What is the mean of the group coded 1? - answers-127.1


You run a linear model with a single binary predictor (0 = Group0; 1 = Group1). The mean of
Group1 is 75 and the beta coefficient is 7. What is the value of the intercept? - answers-68

of measurement, they are referred to as ... - answers-Heteroscedastic


Match the assumption/diagnostic to the most appropriate test.


Shapiro-Wilk Test - answers-Normality of residuals


Match the assumption/diagnostic to the most appropriate test.


Durbin-Watson Test - answers-Autocorrelation of residuals
