Linear Regression

Description

Linear regression is used to explore the relationship between a continuous dependent variable, and one or more continuous and/or categorical explanatory variables. Other statistical methods, such as ANOVA and ANCOVA, are in reality just forms of linear regression.

Usage

linReg(data, dep, covs = NULL, factors = NULL, weights = NULL,
  blocks = list(list()), refLevels = NULL, intercept = "refLevel",
  r = TRUE, r2 = TRUE, r2Adj = FALSE, aic = FALSE, bic = FALSE,
  rmse = FALSE, modelTest = FALSE, anova = FALSE, ci = FALSE,
  ciWidth = 95, stdEst = FALSE, ciStdEst = FALSE,
  ciWidthStdEst = 95, norm = FALSE, qqPlot = FALSE,
  resPlots = FALSE, durbin = FALSE, collin = FALSE, cooks = FALSE,
  emMeans = list(list()), ciEmm = TRUE, ciWidthEmm = 95,
  emmPlots = TRUE, emmTables = FALSE, emmWeights = TRUE)

Arguments

data	the data as a data frame
dep	the dependent variable from data, variable must be numeric
covs	the covariates from data
factors	the fixed factors from data
weights	the (optional) weights from data to be used in the fitting process
blocks	a list containing vectors of strings that name the predictors that are added to the model. The elements are added to the model according to their order in the list
refLevels	a list of lists specifying reference levels of the dependent variable and all the factors
intercept	'refLevel' (default) or 'grandMean', coding of the intercept. Either creates contrast so that the intercept represents the reference level or the grand mean
r	TRUE (default) or FALSE, provide the statistical measure R for the models
r2	TRUE (default) or FALSE, provide the statistical measure R-squared for the models
r2Adj	TRUE or FALSE (default), provide the statistical measure adjusted R-squared for the models
aic	TRUE or FALSE (default), provide Aikaike's Information Criterion (AIC) for the models
bic	TRUE or FALSE (default), provide Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC) for the models
rmse	TRUE or FALSE (default), provide RMSE for the models
modelTest	TRUE (default) or FALSE, provide the model comparison between the models and the NULL model
anova	TRUE or FALSE (default), provide the omnibus ANOVA test for the predictors
ci	TRUE or FALSE (default), provide a confidence interval for the model coefficients
ciWidth	a number between 50 and 99.9 (default: 95) specifying the confidence interval width
stdEst	TRUE or FALSE (default), provide a standardized estimate for the model coefficients
ciStdEst	TRUE or FALSE (default), provide a confidence interval for the model coefficient standardized estimates
ciWidthStdEst	a number between 50 and 99.9 (default: 95) specifying the confidence interval width
norm	TRUE or FALSE (default), perform a Shapiro-Wilk test on the residuals
qqPlot	TRUE or FALSE (default), provide a Q-Q plot of residuals
resPlots	TRUE or FALSE (default), provide residual plots where the dependent variable and each covariate is plotted against the standardized residuals.
durbin	TRUE or FALSE (default), provide results of the Durbin- Watson test for autocorrelation
collin	TRUE or FALSE (default), provide VIF and tolerence collinearity statistics
cooks	TRUE or FALSE (default), provide summary statistics for the Cook's distance
emMeans	a formula containing the terms to estimate marginal means for, supports up to three variables per term
ciEmm	TRUE (default) or FALSE, provide a confidence interval for the estimated marginal means
ciWidthEmm	a number between 50 and 99.9 (default: 95) specifying the confidence interval width for the estimated marginal means
emmPlots	TRUE (default) or FALSE, provide estimated marginal means plots
emmTables	TRUE or FALSE (default), provide estimated marginal means tables
emmWeights	TRUE (default) or FALSE, weigh each cell equally or weigh them according to the cell frequency

Value

A results object containing:

results$modelFit					a table
results$modelComp					a table
results$models					an array of model specific results
results$predictOV					an output
results$residsOV					an output
results$cooksOV					an output

Tables can be converted to data frames with asDF or as.data.frame. For example:

results$modelFit$asDF

as.data.frame(results$modelFit)

Examples

data('Prestige', package='carData')

linReg(data = Prestige, dep = income,
       covs = vars(education, prestige, women),
       blocks = list(list('education', 'prestige', 'women')))
