7 Linear Models in Matrix Form: A Hands-On Approach for the Behavioral Sciences Technological advances inevitably shape the teaching of statistics. For many years, the matrix calculations required in order to do most statistical analyses were too laborious to be performed by hand, so simple algebra was used. The formula for computing an unstandardized regression coefficient in a two-variable, multiple regression analysis provides one example of this first generation approach. b 1 ¼ s 1y s 2 2 s12 s 2y s 2 1 s2 2 ð s12 Þ 2 The availability of handheld calculators in the 1970s made these calculations less tedious, but the pedagogical approach to teaching statistics remained unchanged until statistical packages designed to take advantage of high-speed computers ushered in a new, click and run approach in the mid-1980s. Now, all the calculations took place behind the scenes, and formulas were replaced by a more practical method that emphasized the interpretation of output rather than its production. Unfortunately, the click and run approach has produced a new generation of students who know how to use computer software to perform statistical analyses without knowing much about the computations that produce the output they instantly and (apparently) magically receive. I think this lack of understanding is lamentable; I also think it is unnecessary. Instead of leading us to ignore the calculations that comprise statistical analyses, the ready accessibility of highspeed computers should have led us to reveal the matrix algebra that produces the output: b ¼ 1X X 0 0 X y or b ¼ R 1 Q 0 y That way, students would gain valuable insight into the mathematics behind the results. vii
8 viii Linear Models in Matrix Form: A Hands-On Approach for the Behavioral Sciences You Do the Math! I wrote this book to provide that balance, creating an easy-to-understand, hands-on approach to statistical analysis using matrix algebra. Although many of the topics are advanced (e.g., maximum-likelihood estimation, matrix decompositions, nonparametric smoothers, and penalized cubic splines), all the analyses were performed on an open-source spreadsheet using a few built-in functions (e.g., transpose, inverse). 1 Moreover, every statistical analysis is illustrated using a (fictitious) data set comprised of only 12 observations. The sample size is kept purposefully small so that readers will not be dissuaded from performing the calculations themselves, and each data set tells a coherent story based on statistical significance and confidence intervals. In my experience, statistical analyses come alive when students know how the numbers were generated and how they can be used to make cogent arguments about everyday matters. Intended Audience This book is intended for use in an upper-level undergraduate course or an entrylevel graduate course. I assume some knowledge of basic statistical principles (e.g., measures of central tendencies, hypothesis testing), but familiarity with matrix algebra is not needed. The first chapter introduces students to linear equations, and then covers matrix algebra, focusing on three essential operations: the sum of squares, the determinant, and the inverse. These operations are explained in common everyday language, and their calculations are demonstrated using concrete examples. The remaining chapters build on these operations, progressing from simple linear regression to mediational models with bootstrapped standard errors. This book is also appropriate for intellectually curious researchers. I hope to evoke an aha experience among those who learned only the click and run approach and a so that s all there is to it? reaction among those with only a limited background in mathematics. 1 The spreadsheets accompanying each chapter are available as supplementary material with the book on SpringerLink, and can be downloaded directly at social+sciences+%26+law/book/
9 Linear Models in Matrix Form: A Hands-On Approach for the Behavioral Sciences ix Using R Although this book emphasizes performing calculations with a spreadsheet rather than a statistical package, I do not expect readers to ordinarily use a spreadsheet to analyze their data once they have learned the calculations. 2 Toward that end, each chapter includes code for running all analyses in R, a free software programming language and software environment for statistical computing and graphics that can be downloaded at Whenever possible, I have used functions from the base suite of tools or have provided simple code for ones that are not available elsewhere. Occasionally, I have relied on functions associated with packages that must be installed and attached. To the Reader It has been said that there are three kinds of people those who can do math and those who cannot. If you get the joke, you should be able to solve all the problems in this textbook. Stripped of the jargon and the arcane formulas, most statistical analyses are not all that complicated. We have a variable we wish to predict and a set of variables we use to fashion that prediction. There is really nothing more to it than that. In the end, then, there really is only one kind of person: a person who can do math provided it is explained clearly and illustrated with examples. 2 The results of a great many calculations are presented in the text to illustrate various operations. Due to rounding error, the results obtained using the printed values do not always match the ones obtained using a spreadsheet or statistical package. Rather than confuse readers with two different values, I report the more accurate values one would get using computer software.
