Residuals

What should a residual plot look like?

• Distinct Pattern
• Curve
• Random

How do you calculate a residual?

• Observed - Predicted
• Predicted - Observed

Residuals are . . . 

• possible models not explored by the researcher
• variation in the response variable that is explained by the model
• the difference between the observed response and the values predicted by the model
• data collected from individuals that is not consistent with the rest of the group

Shown is a residual plot. Would a linear regression model of the data be most appropriate?

• YES
• NO

After performing analyses on a set of data, Mrs. Schoeneck examined the scatter plot of the residual values for each analysis. Which scatter plot indicated the best linear fit for the data?

• A
• B
• C

Shown is a residual plot. Would a linear regression model of the data be most appropriate?

• YES
• NO

Estimate the correlation coefficient.

• r = -0.8
• r = -0.5
• r = 0.5
• r = 0.8

Estimate the correlation coefficient for this scatterplot.

• r = 1.2
• r = 0.89
• r = 0
• r = -0.89

The correlation coefficient r is a value between

• 0 and 1
• 0 and 100
• -1 and 1
• -2 and 2

Describe the correlation in the graph shown.

• Strong Negative
• Strong Positive
• Weak Negative
• Weak Positive
