Carrying out a successful application of regression analysis, however, requires a balance of theoretical results, empirical rules, and subjective judgment. \u003ci\u003eRegression Analysis by Example, Fifth Edition\u003c\/i\u003e has been expanded and thoroughly updated to reflect recent advances in the field. The emphasis continues to be on exploratory data analysis rather than statistical theory. The book offers in-depth treatment of regression diagnostics, transformation, multicollinearity, logistic regression, and robust regression.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book now includes a new chapter on the detection and correction of multicollinearity, while also showcasing the use of the discussed methods on newly added data sets from the fields of engineering, medicine, and business.

Each example isolates one or two techniques and features detailed discussions, the required assumptions, and the evaluated success of each technique. Additionally, methods described throughout the book can be carried out with most of the currently available statistical software packages, such as the software package R.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eRegression Analysis by Example, Fifth Edition\u003c\/i\u003e is suitable for anyone with an understanding of elementary statistics.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46260918550769,"sku":"9780470905845","price":147.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/5433\/7265\/files\/9780470905845_p0.jpg?v=1765041236","url":"https:\/\/shop.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780470905845","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
