What are the major philosophical, methodological, and terminological differences between eco...

This is such a common interpretation that you will often see a continuous variable transformed into two categories (low vs high blood pressure) to make this interpretation easier. … Overall, economists tend to look for strong interpretation of coefficients in their models. …

Interpretation of R's output for binomial regression

If you had a multiple logistic regression, there would be additional covariates listed below these, but the interpretation of the output would be the same. … (If you are not sufficiently familiar with log odds, it may help you to read my answer here: interpretation of simple predictions to odds ratios in logistic regression.) …

Why is multicollinearity not checked in modern statistics/machine learning

more features to choose from; some of them are better than others), but that also makes each tree more highly correlated with each other tree, somewhat mitigating the diversifying effect of estimating multiple … A regression is more easily interpreted, but interpretation might not be the most important goal for some tasks. …

How exactly does one “control for other variables”?

In the following I am referring to this PDF document: "Multiple Regression Analysis: Estimation", which has a section on "A 'Partialling Out' Interpretation of Multiple Regression" (p. 83f.). … weight for lmEC.resid (see column Estimate, $\beta_{lmEC.resid}=0.50$) in this simple regression is equal to the multiple regression weight for covariate, which also is $0.50$ (see @EpiGrad's answer …

Why is ANOVA equivalent to linear regression?

(This is a somewhat free interpretation of the "possibility to see a value equal or greater than the one observed under the null hypothesis" and it is not meant to be a text-book definition.) … Clearly when ones starts adding multiple covariate in his regression model, a simple one-way ANOVA does not have a direct equivalence. …

How exactly does one “control for other variables”?

Application to Multiple Regression This geometric process has a direct multiple regression interpretation, because columns of numbers act exactly like geometric vectors. … Fitting multiple regression coefficients is nothing more than projecting ("matching") vectors. …

Analysis with complex data, anything different?

All that follows is straightforward to extend to the multiple regression setting. … Thus this model is not the same as a bivariate multiple regression with four parameters. …

Why do we need multivariate regression (as opposed to a bunch of univariate regressions)?

I went through stats.statexchange posts 1 and 2 that explain (a) difference between multiple and multivariate regression and (b) interpretation of multivariate regression results, but I am not able to … With respect to 1. and 2., can we compare the analysis when we do three univariate multiple regression versus one multivariate multiple regression? How to justify one over another? …

How does Factor Analysis explain the covariance while PCA explains the variance?

PCA: rotation/interpretation of components - sometimes (PCA is not enough realistic as a latent-traits model). FA: rotation/interpretation of factors - routinely. PCA: data reduction method only. … Similarly as in regression the coefficients are the coordinates, on the predictors, both of the dependent variable(s) and of the prediction(s) (See pic under "Multiple Regression", and here, too), in FA …

A more definitive discussion of variable selection

Additionally, overadjustment can cause multiple forms of bias in analyses. … You are right that the interpretation of effects from penalized regression are not easily interpreted for a non-statistical community, unlike estimates from an OLS, where 95% CIs and coefficient estimates …

What are the assumptions of negative binomial regression?

What is the adjusted R-squared formula in lm in R and how should it be interpreted?

Kleiber/Zeileis, Applied Econometrics with R (2008, p. 59) claim it's "Theil's adjusted R-squared" and don't say exactly how its interpretation varies from the multiple R-squared. … I also looked at a related question on Stack Overflow (What is the difference between Multiple R-squared and Adjusted R-squared in a single-variate least squares regression?) …

Reason for not shrinking the bias (intercept) term in regression

In fact, there are several nice and convenient properties of linear regression that depend on there being a proper (unpenalized) intercept term. … (R)^2 = \text{cor}^2(\hat {\mathbf y}, \mathbf y) = \frac{\|\hat{\mathbf y}\|^2}{\|\mathbf y\|^2} = R^2,$$ see e.g. this thread for an explanation: Geometric interpretation of multiple correlation coefficient …
