How should outliers be dealt with in linear regression analysis?
Often times a statistical analyst is handed a set dataset and asked to fit a model using a technique such as linear regression. Very frequently the dataset is accompanied with a disclaimer similar...
How to describe or visualize a multiple linear regression model
Then this simplified version can be visually shown as a simple regression as this: I'm confused on this in spite of going through appropriate material on this topic. Can someone please explain to me how to "explain" a multiple linear regression model and how to visually show it.

Linear regression, conditional expectations and expected values
In the probability model underlying linear regression, X and Y are random variables. if so, as an example, if Y = obesity and X = age, if we take the conditional expectation E (Y|X=35) meaning, whats the expected value of being obese if the individual is 35 across the sample, would we just take the average (arithmetic mean) of y for those observations where X=35? That's right. In general, you ...
model - When forcing intercept of 0 in linear regression is acceptable ...
The problem is, if you fit an ordinary linear regression, the fitted intercept is quite a way negative, which causes the fitted values to be negative. The blue line is the OLS fit; the fitted value for the smallest x-values in the data set are negative.
Choosing variables to include in a multiple linear regression model
I am currently working to build a model using a multiple linear regression. After fiddling around with my model, I am unsure how to best determine which variables to keep and which to remove. My m...
Linear regression what does the F statistic, R squared and residual ...
2. Now I'm getting confused because if RSE tells us how far our observed points deviate from the regression line a low RSE is actually telling us "your model is fitting well based on the observed data points" --> thus how good our models fits, so what is the difference between R squared and RSE?
Assessing the Contribution of each Predictor in Linear Regression
Say I build a linear regression model to identify linear dependencies between variables in my data. Some of these variables are categorical variables. If I want to evaluate the contribution of a g...
Why is ANOVA equivalent to linear regression? - Cross Validated
ANOVA and linear regression are equivalent when the two models test against the same hypotheses and use an identical encoding. The models differ in their basic aim: ANOVA is mostly concerned to present differences between categories' means in the data while linear regression is mostly concern to estimate a sample mean response and an associated $\sigma^2$. Somewhat aphoristically one can ...
Dropping outlier from linear regression model reducing adjusted R^2
From this standpoint, using a robust regression could be a suitable alternative method if outliers are skewing the regression results without having to modify the original set of data. I would also recommend reading this post, which also explains why R-Squared values don't make sense when correcting for outliers in a regression model.
