1 Iteratioal Joural of Scieces: Basic ad Applied Research (IJSBAR) ISSN (Prit & Olie) Ivestigatig the Sigificace of a Correlatio Coefficiet usig Jackkife Estimates Athoy Akpata a, Idika Okorie b a,b Departmet of Statistics, Abia State Uiversity Uturu,Nigeria a ac_akpa@yahoo.com b iokorie@yahoo.com Abstract Ofte i Applied statistics, populatio parameters are ot kow ad could be iferred usig the available sample data ad this is the uderpiig of statistical iferece. Resamplig techique such as jackkife offers effective estimates of parameters ad its asymptotic distributio. I this paper, we preset the jackkife estimate of the parameters of a simple liear regressio model with particular iterest o the correlatio coefficiet. This procedure provides a effective alterative test statistic for testig the ull hypothesis of o associatio betwee the explaatory variables ad a respose variable. Keywords: Jackkife; simple liear regressio; correlatio coefficiet; ols estimates; bias. 1. Itroductio After estimatio of parameters i applied statistics it is always crucial to assess the accuracy of the estimator by its stadard error ad costructio of cofidece itervals for the parameter [1]. Queouille i 1956 developed a cross validatio procedure kow as jackkife (leave-oe-out procedure) for estimatig the bias of a estimator [2]. Two years later this method was further exteded by Joh Tukey to estimate the variace of a estimator ad the ame Jackkife was coied for this cross validatio method [3] * Correspodig author. address: ac_akpa@yahoo.com 441
2 Iteratioal Joural of Scieces: Basic ad Applied Research (IJSBAR)(2015) Volume 22, No 2, pp The jackkife algorithm is a iterative procedure. The iitial step is to estimate the parameter(s) from the etire sample. The the ith elemet (datum) is sequetially dropped from the sample ad the model parameters estimated from the reduced sample data. The resultat estimates are called the partial estimate (pseudo estimates) [4]. The mea of the pseudo estimates is referred to as the jackkife estimate used i place of the mai parameter value [5]. Also, from the pseudo estimates the stadard errors of the parameters could be estimated usig the stadard deviatio i order to eable a statistically sigificat test of the parameters ad the costructio of the cofidece iterval [6]. Regressio aalysis has bee widely used to explai the relatioship betwee the explaatory variables ad a respose variable. However, jackkife was foud viable i estimatig the samplig distributio of the regressio coefficiets i the work of Efro [7], ad further exteded by Freedma [8] ad Wu [9]. With a special case of the simple liear regressio model, this article is aimed at illustratig a alterative to the classic test statistic for assessig the sigificace of the correlatio coefficiet usig jackkife estimates. 2. Methods The liear regressio model could be give i matrix form Y = Xθ + ε (1) Where x 11 x 12 x 1p x 21 x 22 x 2p X = x 1 x 2 x p p, is the p desig matrix (matrix of the explaatory variables) ad the remaiig quatities are vectors correspodig to p 1 regressio parameters, 1 respose variable ad 1 ormally distributed error term with zero mea ad costat variace, defied by θ 1 θ = θ p p 1 Y 1, Y = Y 1 ad ε = ε 1 ε 1. The simple liear regressio model with oe explaatory variable (x i, i = 1,2,3,, ) ad two parameters θ (0) ad θ (1) correspodig to the itercept ad slope parameter is a special case of (1). Hece, the ordiary least square (ols) estimator of this model is θ ols (0) ols θ = (X X) 1 X Y (2) (1) 442

Also, the least squares estimate of the correlatio coefficiet which measures the stregth of a liear relatioship is give by the Pearso product momet estimate x i y i x i y i ρ x,y = ( x 2 i [ x i )( y 2 i [ y i ). (4) ] 2 ] 2 This measure of stregth lies withi 1 ρ x,y 1 where the closer it is to 1 the stroger the positive, if closer to -1 the the stroger the egative relatioship, ad the closer it is to 0, the weaker the relatioship. Iterestigly, -1, 0 ad 1 estimates of this measure imply perfect egative, o ad perfect positive relatioships, respectively. Also, it is ofte ecessary to test the sigificace of this parameter with the followig hypothesis ad test statistic Hypothesis: H 0 : ρ x,y = 0 H 1 : ρ x,y 0 Test Statistic ρ x,y 2 1 ρ x,y 2 ~t α,( 2). However, the test statistic above is classical, ad i this article we propose a jackkife based statistic ρ x,y(j) var ρ x,y(j) ~t α,( 2) for testig the above hypothesis. The jackkife estimates of (2) ad (4) is obtaied by leavig-out the ith observatio of the pair y i, x i ; i = 443

The estimates of θ J ad ρ J, bias ad variace usig the pseudo values θ Ji ad ρ x,y(ji) are θ J = θ Ji (5) With bias bias = θ ols θ Ji (6) Or more succictly bias = θ ols θ J (7) Ad the variace var θ J = θ Ji θ J 2 ( 1) (8) Also, ρ x,y(j) = ρ x,y(ji) (9) With bias bias = ρ x,y ρ x,y(ji) (10) Or bias = ρ x,y ρ x,y(j) (11) Ad variace var ρ x,y(j) = ρ x,y(ji) ρ x,y(j) 2 ( 1) (12) 2.1 Algorithm for Jackkifig Simple Liear Regressio Model Steps: 444

From Table 3 above it could be see that the Jackkife estimates of both the regressio coefficiets θ (0) ad θ (1) ad the correlatio coefficiet ρ x,y are approximately the ols estimates with very small bias, it is iterestig to observe that the Jackkife estimates has smaller stadard errors (Efficiecy property), a uique feature of a good estimator i compariso to their ols couterpart. The classic test statistic value for testig the sigificace of the correlatio coefficiet is smaller tha the value obtaied from the proposed jackkife test statistic; this is a cosequece of a large variace of the ols estimates. 4. Coclusio Jackkife results are misleadig whe the sample size is ot large eough ( < 50), [12]. Factually, the 77 observatios used i this study reveals that the Jackkife estimators are more efficiet tha their ols couterpart i estimatig the coefficiets of a liear regressio model ad the correlatio coefficiet. It also provides the asymptotic distributio of the above metioed parameters, e.g., Table 2. The classic test statistic for testig the sigificace of the correlatio coefficiet is uder-estimated, a effect of large stadard error of the ols estimators ad cosequetly, could lead to erroeously acceptig the ull hypothesis (Type II error). Without loss of geerality, the jackkife based test statistic is better tha its classic couterpart. Refereces [1] M. R. Cherick.
