An F test is used to determine if the relationship can be generalized to the population represented by the sample.A t-test is used to evaluate the individual relationship between each independent variable and the dependent variable.SW388R7Data Analysis & Computers IISlide 5Hierarchical multiple regressionIn hierarchical multiple regression, the independent variables are entered in two stages.In the first stage, the independent variables that we want to control for are entered into the regression. In the second stage, the independent variables whose relationship we want to examine after the controls are entered.A statistical test of the change in R² from the first stage is used to evaluate the importance of the variables entered in the second stage.SW388R7Data Analysis & Computers IISlide 6Stepwise multiple regressionStepwise regression is designed to find the most parsimonious set of predictors that are most effective in predicting the dependent variable.Variables are added to the regression equation one at a time, using the statistical criterion of maximizing the R² of the included variables.When none of the possible addition can make a statistically significant improvement in R², the analysis stops.SW388R7Data Analysis & Computers IISlide 7Problem 1 - standard multiple regressionIn the dataset GSS2000.sav, is the following statement true, false, or an incorrect application of a statistic? Assume that there is no problem with missing data, violation of assumptions, or outliers, and that the split sample validation will confirm the generalizability of the results. Use a level of significance of 0.05. The variables "strength of affiliation" [reliten] and "frequency of prayer" [pray] have a strong relationship to the variable "frequency of attendance at religious services" [attend].Survey respondents who were less strongly affiliated with their religion attended religious services less
