Outliers • Extreme values that are located far away from the group of data on a scatterplot • Outliers can strongly influence the slope of the regression line – And the value of the correlation coefficient • Authors should adequately discuss outliers – Why they occurred – How they were dealt with Evidence-based Chiropractic 93 © 2006

Coefficient of determination • Is the correlation coefficient squared – Symbolized as r 2 • Only positive values are possible (because it is squared) – Ranging from 0 to 1 • Denotes how much of the variation in one variable can be explained by the other variable Evidence-based Chiropractic 95 © 2006

Coefficient of determination • Example – If a study on the relationship between the amount lifted at work and the incidence of lowback pain reported r 2 as 0. 65 – One could say that 65% of the variability in the incidence of low-back pain was explained by the amount workers lifted – Other factors are responsible for the remaining 35% variability Evidence-based Chiropractic 96 © 2006

Regression • Regression analysis – Calculation of the line of best fit passing through a set of data – An equation is generated that describes the line of best fit (a. k. a. , least squares line) • Using the equation, predictions can be made about the direction and amount variables change Evidence-based Chiropractic 97 © 2006

Regression (cont. ) • A regression line is fitted by minimizing the sum of squared deviations of the data points from the least squares line • The regression equation is Y = a + b.

Multiple regression • Frequently outcomes are affected by more than one predictor variable • The multiple regression equation is similar to simple regression, but with more than one value for b. Thus, the equation is Y = a + b 1 X 1 + b 2 X 2 +. . . + bk.
