Testing Research Hypotheses Using Multiple Linear Regression - Softcover

Multiple regression is becoming more widely used as the statistical technique for answering research hypotheses. This is so for several reasons: 1) the technique is extremely versatile; 2) the computer has made the technique more available to researchers; and 3) texts such as the authors earlier work are making the technique more available to researchers. The statistical technique of multiple regression allows the inclusion of numerous continuous (quantitative) and categorical (qualitative) variables in the prediction of some criterion.Appendixes contain a multiple regression computer program and data on which the problems are based; a discussion of the similarities and differences between analysis of variance and multiple regression; and a computer program providing the regression solution to natural language research hypotheses."
