A Limitation with Least Squares Predictions
Bittner, Teresa L.
Teaching Statistics: An International Journal for Teachers, v35 n2 p80-83 Sum 2013
Although researchers have documented that some data make larger contributions than others to predictions made with least squares models, it is relatively unknown that some data actually make no contribution to the predictions produced by these models. This article explores such noncontributory data. (Contains 1 table and 2 figures.)
