Abstract
Regression analysis is a standard method to examine data sets in business and management economics. The R2 coefficient of determination indicates which percentage of the variation of a given variable can commonly be described by the other variables. A neodescriptive approach is necessary to split this percentage in such a way that the relative importance of each variable can be rated.
