3.3 Hypothesis Testing in Multiple Linear Regression
• Questions:– What is the overall adequacy of the model?– Which specific regressors seem important?
• Assume the errors are independent and follow a normal distribution with mean 0 and variance 2

3.3.1 Test for Significance of Regression• Determine if there is a linear relationship between
y and xj, j = 1,2,…,k.
• The hypotheses are
H0: β1 = β2 =…= βk = 0
H1: βj 0 for at least one j
• ANOVA
• SST = SSR + SSRes
• SSR/2 ~ 2k, SSRes/2 ~ 2

• R2 and Adjusted R2 – R2 always increase when a regressor is added to
the model, regardless of the value of the contribution of that variable.
– An adjusted R2:
– The adjusted R2 will only increase on adding a variable to the model if the addition of the variable reduces the residual mean squares.

3.3.2 Tests on Individual Regression Coefficients• For the individual regression coefficient:
– H0: βj = 0 v.s. H1: βj 0
– Let Cjj be the j-th diagonal element of (X’X)-1.
The test statistic:
– This is a partial or marginal test because any estimate of the regression coefficient depends on all of the other regression variables.
– This test is a test of contribution of xj given the
other regressors in the model

• Multicollinearity: this test actually has no power!
• This test has maximal power when X1 and X2 are
orthogonal to one another!
• Partial F test: Given the regressors in X1, measure
the contribution of the regressors in X2.

• Consider y = β0 + β1 x1 + β2 x2 + β3 x3 +
SSR(β1| β0 , β2, β3), SSR(β2| β0 , β1, β3) and SSR(β3|
β0 , β2, β1) are signal-degree-of –freedom sums of
squares.
• SSR(βj| β0 ,…, βj-1, βj, … βk) : the contribution of
xj as if it were the last variable added to the model.
• This F test is equivalent to the t test.
• SST = SSR(β1 ,β2, β3|β0) + SSRes
• SSR(β1 ,β2 , β3|β0) = SSR(β1|β0) + SSR(β2|β1, β0) +
SSR(β3 |β1, β2, β0)

• Another approach:
is chosen so that a specified probability that all intervals are correct is obtained.
• Bonferroni method: Δ= tα/2p, n-p
• Scheffe S-method: Δ=(2Fα,p, n-p )1/2
• Maximum modulus t procedure: Δ= uα,p, n-2 is the
upper tail point of the distribution of the maximum absolute value of two independent student t r.v.’s each based on n-2 degree of freedom

• Example 3.11 The Rocket Propellant Data
• Find 90% joint C.I. for β0 and β1 by constructing a 95% C.I. for each parameter.

• The confidence ellipse is always a more efficient procedure than the Bonferroni method because the volume of the ellipse is always less than the volume of the space covere3d by the Bonferroni intervals.
• Bonferroni intervals are easier to construct.• The length of C.I.:
Maximum modulus t < Bonferroni method

3.6 Hidden Extrapolation in Multiple Regression
• Be careful about extrapolating beyond the region containing the original observations!
• Rectangle formed by ranges of regressors NOT data region.
• Regressor variable hull (RVH): the convex hull of the original n data points.
– Interpolation: x0 RVH
– Extrapolation: x0 RVH
33

• hii of the hat matrix H = X(XX)-1X’are useful in
detecting hidden extrapolation.
• hmax: the maximum of hii . The point xi that has the
largest value of hii will lie on the boundary of
RVH
• {x | x(XX)-1x h≦ max } is an ellipsoid enclosing all
points inside the RVH.
• Let h00 = x′(X′X)-1x0
– h00 hmax : inside the RVH and the boundary
of RVH
– h00 > hmax : outside the RVH

• MCE : minimum covering ellipsoid (Weisberg, 1985).

3.7 Standardized Regression Coefficients

3.8 Multicollinearity
• A serious problem: Multicollinearity or near-linear dependence among the regression variables.
• The regressors are the columns of X. So an exact linear dependence would result a singular X’X

X’X ((W’W)-1 above)
– From above two cases:Soft drink: VIF1 = VIF2 =
3.12 and Figure 3.12: VIF1 = VIF2 = 1
– VIFj = 1/(1-Rj)
– Rj is the coefficient of multiple determination
obtained from regressing xj on the other regressor
variables.
– If xj is nearly linearly dependent on some of the
other regressors, then Rj 1 and VIFj will be
large.– Serious problems: VIFs > 10

3.9 Why Do Regression Coefficients Have the Wrong Sign?
• The reasons of the wrong sign:
1. The range of some of the regressors is too small.
2. Important regressors have not been included in the model.
3. Multicollinearity is present.
4. Computational errors have been made.
50

51
• Although it is possible to decrease the variance of the regression coefficients by increase the range of the x’s, it may not be desirable to spread the levels of the regressors out too far:– The true response function may be nonlinear.– Impractical or impossible.
• For reason 2:

• Fore reason 3: Multicollinearity inflates the variances of the coefficients, and this increases the probability that one or more regression coefficients will have the wrong sign.
• Different computer programs handle round-off or truncation problems in different ways, and some programs are more effective than the others in this regard.
