Questions tagged [concurvity]
Concurvity refers to the nonlinear dependencies among covariates in an additive model, and is related to the concept of collinearity among predictors in a linear model. This tag should be used when a question is related to (multi)collinearity in the predictors of a model where the model contains smooth functions of covariates such as generalized additive models.
