Transcribed Image Text:3. The coefficient of multiple determination
Suppose a researcher is trying to understand what makes living in a particular city desirable. She uses a list from a popular magazine of the current
top 50 desirable cities to live in. Each city was given a desirability score by the magazine's viewers. The researcher is curious about how well she can
predict those scores using only two independent variables: the number of miles to the closest airport and the median home price. She obtains the
values for number of miles to the closest airport and median home price for each of the 50 cities and calculates the following values:
Zero-Order Correlations: # of Miles to the Closest Airport and Median Home Price
City Desirability Rating # of Miles to the Closest Airport
Median Home Price
City Desirability Rating
1.000
-0.447
0.604
# of Miles to the Closest Airport
1.000
-0.066
A. intervening
B. spurious
C. direct
D. interacting
Median Home Price
1.000
A. # of miles to closest airport
B. median home price
C. City desirability rating
The researcher computes the partial correlation of 0.644 between the city desirability rating and the median home price controlling for the number of
miles to the closest airport. Because this value is not much different from the zero-order correlation between the city desirability rating and the
, the researcher can consider the relationship between these two variables to be
at least
A. 16%
В. 36.5%
C. 53.2%
'D. 81%
with respect to consideration of the number of miles to the closest airport.
A.) 0.730 B.) 0.644 C.) 0.532 D.) 0.142
Using the provided correlations and the given partial correlationthe coefficient of multiple determination (R) for the multiple regression equation
predicting the city desirability rating from the other two variables is
. The researcher can interpret this value to mean that
of
the variance in the
is explained by
A. city desirability
B. median home price
C. # of miles to the closest
airport
A. the median home price
B. # of miles to closest airport
C. both # of miles to closest airport and median home price
D. both the city desirability rating anf the median home price
E. both the city desirability rating and the # of miles from the closest airport
A. 21%
В. -44.7%
C. 20.0%
The independent variable number of miles to the closest airport predic: 60.4%
of the variance in the dependent variable by itself. This suggests
that also including median home price in the regression equation
how well the equation can predict the dependent variable.
A.f improve B.) does not improve
The multiple correlation coefficient (R) for the multiple regression equation predicting the city desirability rating from the other two variables is
A. 0.532,
В. 0.644
C. 0.142
D. 0.729
