Multiple linear regression attempts to model the relationship between two or more explanatoryvariables and a response variable by fitting a linear equation to observed data. Every value of the independent variable x is associated with a value of the dependent variable y.

So, two variable are dependent and independent variable.

Nominal: In this level of measurement, numbers are used to categorize the data. For example, if gender is your variable, the responses will be male or female. A dichotomous nominal variable has only two categories.

Ordinal: Ordinal level variables have a meaningful order to them such as rank. For example there is an order to “drink size” (small, medium, large), however there is not a consistent distance between sizes.

Scale: Numeric variables that have equal intervals between each value, for example age.

Linear regression: Dependent variable is scale; predictor(s) scale or nominal

In a single variable regression analysis the respective values for the variables are as follows: Independent variable: 2.00, 7.00, 11.00, 16.00, 13.00, 14.00, 1.00, 12.00, 19.00, 9.00.

Lurking variables are those that were not included in regression analysis, but are actually the true independent variable. For example, studies show that where there is an increase in ice cream sales, there is also an increase in the number of drownings. Now, ice cream does not affect drowning. The lurking variable in this case is the temperature. As the temperature rises, people buy ice cream and they go swimming. More people swimming will increase the number of drownings. Statisticians...

If I ran a multivariate regression analysis for the effect of independent variables X and Y on dependent variable A, that produced an adjusted R^2 of .0553, then added the independent variable Z to the analysis and got an adjusted R^2 of .0550, would that decrease in the adjusted R^2 translate to the independent variable Z not being a strong predictor of the dependent variable A? If it were a strong predictor of A would the adjusted R^2 increase?
