Question

1. Using the FEV dataset, determine the pairwise correlations of Age, FEV, and Height (Hgt).

(Here's the Excel link of the FEV dataset (I use STATA)--> https://drive.google.com/open?id=1_y3VPWWGBg0D-rmZUKotjRmHdfLMB8NL

2. Fit a regression line investigating the relationship between Height (Hgt) and FEV.

a) Generate a scatter plot of the data

b) Provide the equation of the line which best fits the data.

c) Is a linear model appropriate for this data? Conduct the F-test, goodness of fit test. Determine the p-value and interpretation of the test.

d) Give the R^2 for the model.

Explanation / Answer

1.

Correlations: Age, fev, Hgt

Age fev
fev 0.756
Hgt 0.792 0.868

2.


Regression Analysis: fev versus Hgt

The regression equation is
fev = - 5.43 + 0.132 Hgt


Predictor Coef SE Coef T P
Constant -5.4327 0.1815 -29.94 0.000
Hgt 0.131976 0.002955 44.66 0.000


S = 0.430676 R-Sq = 75.4% R-Sq(adj) = 75.3%
