check.outlier: Statistical Measures for Leverage, Distance, and Influence

In misty: Miscellaneous Functions 'T. Yanagida'

Statistical Measures for Leverage, Distance, and Influence

Description

This function computes statistical measures for leverage, distance, and influence for linear models estimated by using the lm() function. Mahalanobis distance and hat values are computed for quantifying leverage, standardized leverage-corrected residuals and studentized leverage-corrected residuals are computed for quantifying distance, and Cook's distance and DfBetas are computed for quantifying influence.

Usage

check.outlier(model, check = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

model	a fitted model of class "lm".
check	logical: if TRUE (default), argument specification is checked.
...	further arguments to be passed to or from methods.

Details

In regression analysis, an observation can be extreme in three major ways (see Darlington & Hayes, p. 484): (1) An observation has high leverage if it has a atypical pattern of values on the predictors, (2) an observation has high distance if its observed outcome value Y_i has a large deviation from the predicted value \hat{Y}_i, and (3) an observation has high influence if its inclusion substantially changes the estimates for the intercept and/or slopes.

Value

Returns a data frame with following entries:

idout	ID variable
mahal	Mahalanobis distance
hat	hat values
rstand	standardized leverage-corrected residuals
rstud	studentized leverage-corrected residuals
cook	Cook's distance
Intercept.dfb	DFBetas for the intercept
pred1.dfb	DFBetas for the slope of the predictor pred1
....dfb	DFBetas for the slope of the predictor ...

# Example 1: Regression model and measures for leverage, distance, and influence
mod.lm <- lm(mpg ~ cyl + disp + hp, data = mtcars)
check.outlier(mod.lm)

# Merge result table with the data
dat1 <- cbind(mtcars, check.outlier(mod.lm))
