Brandon, at 65 I am trying to keep up with new technologies. Regression analysis was not taught in my school days and, so, I was finding it difficult to follow the predictive models. Your videos not only taught me the fundamentals but also have given me the confidence to use regression for my bucket list pet projects. Thank you!

Damn I wish I had adopted you as my remote statistics professor from the get-go, it was so infuriating and frustrating having to figure out everything for myself. The most frustrating part is looking back and realizing that none of this is actually hard at all, it all boils down to the ineptitude of teachers and the limits of the book format. I'm always puzzled how didactically challenged some people with a background in psychology can be. I hope some day Universities will stop wasting their professor's time and also my time with this incessant lecture ritual nonsense. All you need is one person that can explain things from the ground up in a didactically sound manner, and that person only has to do it once and put it online.

One thing I'm still not clear on..."East" is not given in the results, which is fine for the purpose of inputting numbers into the regression equation, but we don't get to see the p-value for that category. We can see whether or not North, South, and West are significant, but how would you know if East is significant or not? Also: my understanding is that in this case East is a reference for the other categories within that variable. The p-values for North, South and West indicate whether or not they are significantly different from the reference (East). What does that mean for each category's significance to the overall model, and what information tells us if the "Region" variable overall is significant to the model? It seems there might be cases in which we would remove the variable entirely, and cases where some categories are significant and we would keep the predictor but remove the non-significant categories within it.

@alejandrohermida93187 жыл бұрын
I'm daring to guess right here, but I think that, as the "east" category is marked with a 0, the values of east would be equal to those of the sqft without adding anything else. The same would be true for when a school is not exemplary (also marked with 0), so in the case of a house in the east in a neighborhood without an exemplary school, the price of the house would only be affected by the sqft (92 dlls per additional square feet). In the case of a house in the east with an exemplary school, we would have to add 27310 dlls to the coefficient of the constant, that is, instead of starting our line in -30.3, we would be starting it around -3 (as we are adding the 27.3 thousand dollars from the coefficient of the exemplary school). In the case of a house in any other region, we would take the previous numbers and add the coefficient of the region to the constant (so -3 + (-4) for the north, -3 + 7.2 for the south and so). This however would not give us the 4 different lines that were showed in the previous video, as the numbers showed here are all taken from the whole dataset, not from the individual regression of every variable. I hope my reasoning is right and if anyone could correct my answer I would be happy to receive feedback.

Good video! I have a question to ask. In the first part of this series, you sir talked about checking first the significance of each independent variable against the dependent variables. Does that apply also to categorical variables? Since the categorical predictor for the region is NOT significant, should it still be included in the model? Should i model a new one without including the region variable? I look forward to your reply thanks :)

@BrandonFoltz9 ай бұрын
Hello! Significance is only meaningful in the context of the other variables in the regression model. So, it should be kept and reported as not significant. If you want to build the model that explains the most variance in the DV, you can use a true model building processes such as forward backward, stepwise, subsets, etc. to see how different combinations gobble up the total sum of squares.

@BrandonFoltz3 жыл бұрын
Hi Susan! Always a god idea to check for collinearities right at the start. If features are correlated with each other and the target, these methods will likely not include it because the sum of squares is redundant. You can look at tolerance or VIF (VIF is the reciprocal of tolerance) as an additional check.

UNPACKING THE INTERCEPT IN MULTIPLE REGRESSION. Don't know if it is possible but I will ask anyway. I created a spreadsheet for a tract of 48 homes (made up data) and input the price per square foot of land, living area, basement, baths, etc. Then I ran the multiple regression and it returned the exact coefficients expected. The intercepts for each characteristic were combined into one in the multiple regression results. I would now like to 'unpack' the results to find out how much of the 'multiple' coefficient should be allocated to each characteristic. For example, a 1,400 square foot home is worth $100/sqft but the model just gives the coefficient of $50. Is it possible to 'unpack' the intercept and find out where the other $50 went?
