ols_plot_resid_fit: Residual vs fitted plot

In olsrr: Tools for Building OLS Regression Models

Residual vs fitted plot

Description

Scatter plot of residuals on the y axis and fitted values on the x axis to detect non-linearity, unequal error variances, and outliers.

Usage

ols_plot_resid_fit(model, print_plot = TRUE)

Arguments

model	An object of class lm.
print_plot	logical; if TRUE, prints the plot else returns a plot object.

Details

Characteristics of a well behaved residual vs fitted plot:

• The residuals spread randomly around the 0 line indicating that the relationship is linear.

• The residuals form an approximate horizontal band around the 0 line indicating homogeneity of error variance.

• No one residual is visibly away from the random pattern of the residuals indicating that there are no outliers.
