A utility test of SLR is as follows: 1. H0 : β1 = 0 versus Ha : β1 6= 0 2. Test statistic: F0 = MSR=MSE 3. p-value = P (F1;n−2 > F0) 4. Decision and Conclusion The test results of the alcohol consumption example: I Test statistic: F0 = 96:61 I p-value = P (F1;15−2 > 96:61) < 0:0001 I Reject the null. 13 / 32 Lectures 9: Simple Linear Regression Assess Model Adequacy Coecient of Determination I The analysis of variance identity n n n X 2 X 2 X 2 (yi − y¯) = (^yi − y¯) + (yi − y^i) i=1 i=1 i=1 | {z } | {z } | {z } SST SSR SSE I Coecient of Determination, denoted by R2: SSR SSE R2 = = 1 − SST SST I R2 is often used to judge the adequacy of a regression model. I We often refer loosely to R2 as the amount of variability in the data explained or accounted for by the regression model. I 0 ≤ R2 ≤ 1. It could be shown that R2 = r2, the square of the sample correlation coecient. 2 In the alcohol consumption example, R = 0:8814. 14 / 32 Lectures 9: Simple Linear Regression Inference about Linear Regression Estimation of Variances I The variance σ2 is estimated as s2 given by Pn (y − y^ )2 SSE s2 = i=1 i i = ≡ MSE n − 2 n − 2 ^ I The estimated variance of β1 is 2 ^ s Var (β1) = Pn 2 i=1(xi − x¯) I The estimated variance of a predicted value y∗ at a given value of x, say x∗, is ∗ 2 ∗ 2 1 (x − x¯) Var (y ) = s 1 + + Pn 2 n i=1(xi − x¯) 15 / 32 Lectures 9: Simple Linear Regression Inference about Linear Regression Estimation of Variances (example) I The estimator of variance, s2, is MSE: p s2 = 17:39076 =) s = 17:39076 = 4:17022 In the SAS output, s is called Root MSE. ^ I The standard error of β1 is given in the table of parameter estimates: se(β^1) = 0:20123 16 / 32 Lectures 9: Simple Linear Regression Inference about Linear Regression Inference about the Slope (β1) Under our model assumptions, β^1 − β1 T = ∼ tn−2 se(β^1) where ^ p 2 Pn 2 p 2 . se(β1) = s = i=1(xi − x¯) ≡ s =Sxx I Suppose we want to test β1 equals to a certain value, β1;0 H0 : β1 = β1;0 versus Ha : β1 6= (< or >)β1;0 I The test statistic under the null is β^1 − β1;0 t0 = p 2 s =Sxx I Note that if the alternative is the not equal case and β1;0 = 0 then it is the same as the utility test. 17 / 32 Lectures 9: Simple Linear Regression Inference about Linear Regression Hypothesis Test about β1 In the standard SAS output, the result of the test that is equivalent to the utility test is automatically included. For example, in the alcohol example, I Hypotheses: H0 : β1 = 0 versus Ha : β1 6= 0 I Test statistic: β^1 1:97792 t0 = = = 9:83 p 2 s =Sxx 0:20123 I p-value < 0:0001. I Reject the null. With these standard output, it is straightforward to test other cases. For example, if the alternative is right-sided, Ha : β1 > 0, then the p-value is P (Tn−2 > t0), which is technically a half of the p-value of the two-sided test. 18 / 32 Lectures 9: Simple Linear Regression Model Diagnostics Model Diagnostics Check model assumptions: I Constant variance I Normality of error terms The residuals ei = yi − y^i play an essential role in diagnosing a tted model.

I Residuals ei = yi − y^i I Studentized residuals ei ei ri = = p s(ei) s 1 − hii th where hii is the i element in the diagonal of the hat matrix. While the residuals ei will have substantially dierent sampling variations if their standard deviations dier markedly, the studentized residuals ri have constant variance. 20 / 32 Lectures 9: Simple Linear Regression Model Diagnostics Deleted Residuals and Studentized Deleted Residual If yi is far outlying, the regression line may be inuenced to come close to yi, yielding a tted value y^i near yi, so that the residual ei will be small and will not disclose that yi is outlying. A renement to make residuals more eective for detecting y outliers is to measure the ith residual when the tted regression is based on all the cases except the ith one.

    Chapter 4: Model Adequacy Checking In this chapter, we discuss some introductory aspect of model adequacy checking, including: • Residual Analysis, • Residual plots, • Detection and treatment of outliers, • The PRESS statistic • Testing for lack of fit. The major assumptions that we have made in regression analysis are: • The relationship between the response Y and the regressors is linear, at least approximately. • The error term ε has zero mean. • The error term ε has constant varianceσ 2 . • The errors are uncorrelated. • The errors are normally distributed. Assumptions 4 and 5 together imply that the errors are independent. Recall that assumption 5 is required for hypothesis testing and interval estimation. Residual Analysis: The residuals , , , have the following important properties: e1 e2 L en (a) The mean of is 0. ei (b) The estimate of population variance computed from the n residuals is: n n 2 2 ∑()ei−e ∑ei ) 2 = i=1 = i=1 = SS Re s = σ n − p n − p n − p MS Re s (c) Since the sum of is zero, they are not independent. However, if the number of ei residuals ( n ) is large relative to the number of parameters ( p ), the dependency effect can be ignored in an analysis of residuals. Standardized Residual: The quantity = ei ,i = 1,2, , n , is called d i L MS Re s standardized residual. The standardized residuals have mean zero and approximately unit variance. A large standardized residual ( > 3 ) potentially indicates an outlier. d i Recall that e = (I − H )Y = (I − H )(X β + ε )= (I − H )ε Therefore, / Var()e = var[]()I − H ε = (I − H )var(ε )(I −H ) = σ 2 ()I − H .

In many network meta-analyses, some of the constituent studies may have markedly different characteristics from the others, and may be influential enough to change the overall results. The inclusion of these “outlying” studies might lead to biases, yielding misleading results. In this article, we propose effective methods for detecting outlying and influential studies in a frequentist framework. In particular, we propose suitable influence measures for network meta-analysis models that involve missing outcomes and adjust the degree of freedoms appropriately. We propose three influential measures by a leave-one-trial-out cross-validation scheme: (1) comparison-specific studentized residual, (2) relative change measure for covariance matrix of the comparative effectiveness parameters, (3) relative change measure for heterogeneity covariance matrix.

PUB DATE Jan 96 NOTE 29p.; Paper presented at the Annual Meeting of the Southwest Educational Research Association (New Orleans, LA, January 1996). PUB TYPE Reports Evaluative/Feasibility (142) Speeches/Conference Papers (150) EDRS PRICE MF01/PCO2 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Graphs; *Identification; *Least Squares Statistics; *Regression (Statistics) ;Research Methodology IDENTIFIERS *Outliers; *Residual Scores; Statistical Package for the Social Sciences PC ABSTRACT The information that is gained through various analyses of the residual scores yielded by the least squares regression model is explored. In fact, the most widely used methods for detecting data that do not fit this model are based on an analysis of residual scores. First, graphical methods of residual analysis are discussed, followed by a review of several quantitative approaches. Only the more widely used approaches are discussed. Example data sets are analyzed through the use of the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (personal computer version) to illustrate the various strengths and weaknesses of these approaches and to demonstrate the necessity of using a variety of techniques in combination to detect outliers. The underlying premise for using these techniques is that the researcher needs to make sure that conclusions based on the data are not solely dependent on one or two extreme observations. Once an outlier is detected, the researcher must examine the data point's source of aberration. (Contains 3. figures, 5 tables, and 14 references.)

  • Diagnosing Problems in Linear and Generalized Linear Models 6
    Diagnosing Problems in Linear and Generalized Linear Models 6 egression diagnostics are methods for determining whether a fitted regres- R sion model adequately represents the data. We use the term regression broadly in this chapter to include methods for both linear and generalized lin- ear models, and many of the methods described here are also appropriate for other regression models. Because most of the methods for diagnosing prob- lems in linear models extend naturally to generalized linear models, we deal at greater length with linear-model diagnostics, briefly introducing the exten- sions to GLMs. Linear models fit by least squares make strong and sometimes unrealis- tic assumptions about the structure of the data. When these assumptions are violated, least-squares estimates can behave badly and may even completely misrepresent the data. Regression diagnostics can reveal such problems and often point the way toward solutions. Section 6.1 describes various kinds of residuals in linear models, and Section 6.2 introduces basic scatterplots of residuals, along with related plots that are used to assess the fit of a model to data. The remaining sections are specialized to particular problems, describing methods for diagnosis and at least touching on possible remedies. Section 6.3 introduces methods for detecting unusual data, including outliers, high-leverage points, and influen- tial observations. Section 6.4 returns to the topic of transformations of the response and predictors (discussed previously in Section 3.4) to correct prob- lems such as nonnormally distributed errors and nonlinearity. Section 6.5 deals with nonconstant error variance. Section 6.6 describes the extension of diagnostic methods to GLMs such as logistic and Poisson regression.

  • Diagnostics for Logistic Regression an Important Part of Model Testing Is Examining Your Model for Indications That Statistical Assumptions Have Been Violated
    Newsom Psy 525/625 Categorical Data Analysis, Spring 2021 1 Diagnostics for Logistic Regression An important part of model testing is examining your model for indications that statistical assumptions have been violated. This diagnostic process involves a considerable amount of judgement call, because there are not typically any definitive statistical tests that can be used to provide assurance that the model meets assumptions or not. One reason that diagnosis is somewhat of a judgement call is that assumptions, such as normality of errors, applies to the population, which we do not have definitive information about. This means that the sample data may be expected to depart from what is expected by the assumption even if there is no real violation in the population. Assumptions with Logistic Regression I will give a brief list of assumptions for logistic regression, but bear in mind, for statistical tests generally, assumptions are interrelated to one another (e.g., heteroscedasticity and independence of errors) and different authors word them differently or include slightly different lists. I will not discuss several assumptions—independence of errors/observations, correctly specified model (all relevant predictors included), correct functional form, absence of multicollinearity, fixed predictors (measured without error)—in detail here, because they are common to ordinary least squares regression (see Cohen, Cohen, West, & Aiken, 2003, for a good introduction). There are a couple of other special numerical problems that occur with logistic regression that I will also address here. An important assumption of logistic regression is that the errors (residuals) of the model are approximately normally distributed. The observed values on the response variable cannot be normally distributed themselves, because Y is binary.

  • Lecture 20: Outliers and Influential Points 1 Modified Residuals
    Lecture 20: Outliers and Influential Points An outlier is a point with a large residual. An influential point is a point that has a large impact on the regression. Surprisingly, these are not the same thing. A point can be an outlier without being influential. A point can be influential without being an outlier. A point can be both or neither. Figure 1 shows four famous datasets due to Frank Anscombe. If you run least squares on each dataset you will get the same output: Coefficients: Estimate Std. Error t value Pr(>|t|) (Intercept) 3.0001 1.1247 2.667 0.02573 * x 0.5001 0.1179 4.241 0.00217 ** Residual standard error: 1.237 on 9 degrees of freedom Multiple R-squared: 0.6665,Adjusted R-squared: 0.6295 F-statistic: 17.99 on 1 and 9 DF, p-value: 0.00217 The top left plot has no problems. The top right plot shows a non-linear pattern. The bottom left plot has an an outlier. The bottom right plot has an influential point. Imagine what would happen if we deleted the rightmost point. If you looked at residual plots, you would see problems in the second and third case. But the resdual plot for the fourth example would look fine. You can't see influence in the usual residual plot. 1 Modified Residuals Let e be the vector of residuals. Recall that e = (I − H), E[e] = 0; Var(e) = σ2(I − H): p Thus the standard error of ei is σb 1 − hii where hii ≡ Hii.

    g02 – Regression Analysis g02fac nag regsn std resid influence (g02fac) 1. Purpose nag regsn std resid influence (g02fac) calculates two types of standardised residuals and two measures of influence for a linear regression. 2. Specification #include <nag.h> #include <nagg02.h> void nag_regsn_std_resid_influence(Integer n, Integer ip, Integer nres, double res[], double h[], double rms, double sres[], NagError *fail) 3. Description For the general linear regression model is defined by y = Xβ + ε where y is a vector of length n of the dependent variable, X is an n by p matrix of the independent variables, β is a vector of length p of unknown parameters, and ε is a vector of length n of unknown random errors such that var ε = σ2I. The residuals are given by r = y − yˆ = y − Xβ.ˆ The fitted values,y ˆ = Xβˆ, can be written as Hy for an n by n matrix H.Theith diagonal element of H, hi, gives a measure of the influence of the ith value of the independent variables on the fitted regression model. The values of r and the hi are returned by nag regsn mult linear (g02dac). nag regsn std resid influence calculates statistics which help to indicate if an observation is extreme and having an undue influence on the fit of the regression model. Two types of standardised residual are calculated (a) The ith residual is standardised by its variance when the estimate of σ2, s2, is calculated from all the data; known as internal studentization. ri RIi = . s 1 − hi 2 2 (b) The ith residual is standardised by its variance when the estimate of σ , s−i is calculated from the data excluding the ith observation; known as external studentization.
