For Exercises find the coefficients of determination and non determination and explain the meaning of each.
r = 0.18
Given that r = 0.18 then Coefficient of Determination = r2 = (0.18)2 = 0.0324.
This result means that 3.24 % of the variation in the dependent variable is accounted for by the variations in the independent variable.
Coefficient of non – determination = 1 – r2 = 1 – 0.0324 = 0.9676.
Therefore 96.76% of the variation in the dependent variable is unexplained by the variations in the independent variable.
Therefore 96.76% of the variation in the dependent variable is unexplained by the variations in the independent variable.
