Abstract
Linear regression analysis represents the criterion variable y by the sum of a linear combination of p predictor variables x 1,x 2,...,x pand an error term ε,
where j indexes cases (observation units, subjects, etc.) and n indicates the total number of cases, and where α and β i(i = 1,...,p)are regres- sion coefficients (parameters) to be estimated. Assume first that the error termsε1,ε2,...,εnare mutually independent with an equal variance σ2.We may obtain the estimates a,b1,...,bpof the regression coefficients using the method of least squares (LS) that minimizes
