1 Socology 30 Bvarate Regresson Lyng Luo Clarfcaton Last exam (Exam #4) s on May 7, n class. No exam n the fnal exam week (May 24). Regresson Regresson Analyss: the procedure for esjmajng and tesjng the relajonshp between conjnuous varables. Bvarate Regresson (Smple Lnear Regresson): two conjnuous varables MulJvarate Regresson: three or more conjnuous varables

2 Scatterplot A dagram that vsually dsplays the covarajon of two conjnuous varables as a set of ponts on X-Y coordnates Scatterplot A dagram that vsually dsplays the covarajon of two conjnuous varables as a set of ponts on X-Y coordnates Scatterplot A dagram that vsually dsplays the covarajon of two conjnuous varables as a set of ponts on X-Y coordnates Wfe s Age Husband s Age Unted States Husband s Age Wfe s Age Husband s Age Serre Leone Husband s Age

3 Scatterplot The basc shape of the relajonshp: a straght lne? a curve? a blob? The drecjon of the relajonshp: posjve? negajve? uncertan? The amount of varablty: how many ponts devate from the basc patern? Outlers or usual observajons? Scatterplot Shape Straght Lne Curved Lne Football Shape Shapeless Blob Scatterplot DrecJon Postve Negatve Postve Negatve

4 Scatterplot Varablty No Varablty Some Varablty More Varablty Almost a Shapeless Blob Scatterplot Outler No Outlers Maybe an Outler One Clear Outler One Lkely Outler Bvarate Regresson Conceptually, bvarate regresson nvolves drawng a lne through the ponts on the scaterplot that comes closest to the ponts on the Y dmenson.

5 Bvarate Regresson Regresson analyss nvolves esjmajng an equajon that... descrbes how, on average, the response varable (Y) s related to the predctor varable (X)...allows us to make esjmajon about the value of the response varable (Y) gven a specfed value of the predctor varable (X) When we regress Y on X we produce a model that esjmates Y on the bass of X. Bvarate Regresson TheoreJcal regresson model for populajon ntercept slope error TheoreJcal regresson model for sample Populaton Model Sample Model ntercept slope error ntercept F#ed regresson model for sample slope ntercept slope error Bvarate Regresson FTed regresson model for sample ntercept slope Usng the regresson equajon we can...esjmate the average value of Y for a gven value of X (to a less extent)predct an ndvdual s value of Y for a gven value of X

It says that for every one unt ncrease n X (runs) we should observe a 0. unt ncrease n Y (wns) It also lterally says that f a team were to score zero runs n a season such that X0 we should observe that the team would wn game (more on ths later) Interpretng Bvarate Regresson Coeffcent Example : An economst s nterested n the relajonshp between annual salary (Y) and heght n nches (X). He regressed annual salary on heght and found the esjmated ntercept a30,000 and slope b350. Wrte down the fted regresson model and nterpret the ntercept and the slope.

10 Testng Bvarate Regresson Coeffcent FTed regresson model for sample ntercept slope TesJng bvarate regresson coeffcent: a ntercept: We don t usually care b slope: Is the predctor (X) related to the response (Y)? Testng Bvarate Regresson Coeffcent Typcal null hypothess about populajon slope β: the predctor varable X has no lnear relajonshp wth the response varable Y. Gven the esjmated slope b wth sample data, how lkely the populajon slope β equals to 0? Most common: two-taled test: H 0: β0 vs H : β 0 (Far) less common: one-taled test: H 0: β 0 vs H : β<0 or H 0: β 0 vs H : β>0 Testng Bvarate Regresson Coeffcent Example : An economst s nterested n the relajonshp between annual salary (Y) and heght n nches (X). He regressed annual salary on heght and found the esjmated ntercept a30,000 and slope b350. State the null and research hypothess about the slope.

11 Testng Bvarate Regresson Coeffcent Example 2: A crmnologst s nterested n the relajonshp between number of homcde (Y) and medan household ncome (X) n neghborhoods. She regressed the number of homcde on medan household ncome. She found the esjmated ntercept a0. and slope b-0.5. State the null and research hypothess about the slope. Testng Bvarate Regresson Coeffcent The Central Lmt Theorem b a sample stajsjcs s normally dstrbuted wth meanβ and standard error (under some crcumstances of course). It means that we can use Z-staJsJcs to test whether β s dfferent from the hypotheszed value (usually 0). However, we usually don t know so we use t-stajsjcs nstead. and have to rely on sample nformajon, For ths class, (standard error of b) wll be provded. Testng Bvarate Regresson Coeffcent Example A cvl engneer s nterested n whether anxety level (X, a numerc measure rangng anywhere from 0 to 20 wth 20 beng extremely anxous) s assocated wth drvng speed on the hghway (X, n mles per hour). He regressed anxety level on speed and found the esjmated ntercept a75, the esjmated slope b2., and the esjmated standard error for the slope S b.2.. Wrte down the fted regresson model. 2. Interpret the esjmated ntercept and slope. 3. State the null and research hypothess about the slope. 4. Decde the alpha level and crjcal value(s). 5. Compute the test stajsjc. 6. Compare the test stajsjc to the crjcal value to make a decson. 7. State a techncal decson and a substanjve concluson.

12 Testng Bvarate Regresson Coeffcent Example 2 A socologst s nterested n nter-generajonal moblty defned as the relajonshp between father educajon and chld s educajon. He sampled n,485 ndvduals, and below s the SPSS output.. Wrte down the fted regresson model. 2. Interpret the esjmated ntercept and slope. 3. State the null and research hypothess about the slope. 4. Decde the alpha level and crjcal value(s). 5. Compute the test stajsjc. 6. Compare the test stajsjc to the crjcal value to make a decson. 7. State a techncal decson and a substanjve concluson. Coeffcent of Determnaton How well does X do n esjmajng/predcjng Y? A strong assocajon/relajonshp allows good esjmajon/predcjon. A weak assocajon/relajonshp means bad esjmajon/predcjon. To measure ths, we examne how much of the varajon n Y can be atrbuted to X and how much s random error. That s, we can parjjon the varance n Y nto the part atrbutable to X and the part atrbutable to error. Coeffcent of Determnaton ParJJon the varance n Y nto the part atrbutable to X and the part atrbutable to error. Y Y ( Ŷ Y) + ( Y Ŷ ) Porton of the devaton from the mean that s attrbutable to X Porton of the devaton from the mean that s attrbutable to random error Devatons from the mean can be expressed as the sum of () devatons of the predcted value from the mean and (2) ndvdual devatons from the predcted value
