Chapter 2: Inferences in Regression AnalysisAs X changes, E(Y) does not change. X is not linearly related to Y.a)Chapter 2: Inferences in Regression AnalysisPopulation model: Yi=0+1Xi+i where 0 and 1 are parametersXi are known constantsi ~ independent N(0,2)2.1 Inferences concerning 1Is X linearly related to Y? Perform a hypothesis test to answer these questions.Suppose 1 = 0Population Model: Yi = 0 + 1Xi + iThen Yi = 0 + 0*Xi + i= 0 + i Example plot: Suppose 0=3.  2012 Christopher R.

Use b1’s sampling distribution If we repeated the process of taking a sample from the population an infinite amount of times (calculating b1 each time), the average of the b1’s would be 1, the variance of the b1’s would be2 2(X X) , and b1~N(1,2 2(X X) ). i.e., E(b1)=1 and Var(b1)=2(b1)=2 2(X X) (NOTE: Different notation for variance!)  2012 Christopher R.

Bilder2.4Sampling distribution of 1 1 1t (b ) Var(b )�*= - bPurpose: Find a test statistic for a test of 1=0Note: The standardized quantity, 1 1 1(b ) Var(b )- b, is distributed as N(0,1) random variable. Quick Review - A standardized quantity is: statistic E(statistic)Var(statistic)- Since 2 unknown, we generally can not use this quantity for hypothesis testing. Use the “studentized” version of the above quantity: 1 1 1t (b ) Var(b )�*= - bsince this contains no unknown parameters (1 will be specified in the hypothesis test). t*~t(n-2) where t(n-2) represents a random variable with a student t-distribution (or just t-distribution) withn-2 degrees of freedom.  2012 Christopher R.

Bilder2.7In the summary() output for an object resulting from using lm(), the p-value for a test of H0: 1=0 vs. Ha: 10 will be given. The more general way to find it is using the pt() function which finds the probability of random variable t(n-2) is less than a particular value. For example, if the test statistic was 1.96 with 10 degrees of freedom, we obtain P(t(n-2) < 1.96), > pt(q = 1.96, df = 10)[1] 0.9607819Since the p-value is 2P( t(n-2) > |t*|), we can change this to > 2*(1-pt(q = abs(1.96), df = 10))[1] 0.07843624To find a critical value, use the qt() function,> qt(p = 0.95, df = 10)[1] 1.812461Thus, P( t(n-2) < 1.81) = 0.95; i.e., 1.81 is the 0.95 quantile from a t-distribution with 10 degrees of freedom. (1-  )100% confidence interval (C.I.) for 1: The “usual” type of t-distribution based confidence interval is: Estimator  t(1-/2, df)*(S.E. of estimator) 2012 Christopher R.
