  applied regression analysis and generalized linear models: Regression Diagnostics John Fox, 2019-12-09 Regression diagnostics are methods for determining whether a regression model that has been fit to data adequately represents the structure of the data. For example, if the model assumes a linear (straight-line) relationship between the response and an explanatory variable, is the assumption of linearity warranted? Regression diagnostics not only reveal deficiencies in a regression model that has been fit to data but in many instances may suggest how the model can be improved. The Second Edition of this bestselling volume by John Fox considers two important classes of regression models: the normal linear regression model (LM), in which the response variable is quantitative and assumed to have a normal distribution conditional on the values of the explanatory variables; and generalized linear models (GLMs) in which the conditional distribution of the response variable is a member of an exponential family. R code and data sets for examples within the text can be found on an accompanying website.

In addition to Minitab, SAS, and S-PLUS, the authors have incorporated JMP and the freely available R software to illustrate the discussed techniques and procedures in this new edition. Numerous exercises have been added throughout, allowing readers to test their understanding of the material. Introduction to Linear Regression Analysis, Fifth Edition is an excellent book for statistics and engineering courses on regression at the upper-undergraduate and graduate levels. The book also serves as a valuable, robust resource for professionals in the fields of engineering, life and biological sciences, and the social sciences.
  applied regression analysis and generalized linear models: The SAGE Handbook of Regression Analysis and Causal Inference Henning Best, Christof Wolf, 2013-12-20 ′The editors of the new SAGE Handbook of Regression Analysis and Causal Inference have assembled a wide-ranging, high-quality, and timely collection of articles on topics of central importance to quantitative social research, many written by leaders in the field. Everyone engaged in statistical analysis of social-science data will find something of interest in this book.′ - John Fox, Professor, Department of Sociology, McMaster University ′The authors do a great job in explaining the various statistical methods in a clear and simple way - focussing on fundamental understanding, interpretation of results, and practical application - yet being precise in their exposition.′ - Ben Jann, Executive Director, Institute of Sociology, University of Bern ′Best and Wolf have put together a powerful collection, especially valuable in its separate discussions of uses for both cross-sectional and panel data analysis.′ -Tom Smith, Senior Fellow, NORC, University of Chicago Edited and written by a team of leading international social scientists, this Handbook provides a comprehensive introduction to multivariate methods. The Handbook focuses on regression analysis of cross-sectional and longitudinal data with an emphasis on causal analysis, thereby covering a large number of different techniques including selection models, complex samples, and regression discontinuities. Each Part starts with a non-mathematical introduction to the method covered in that section, giving readers a basic knowledge of the method’s logic, scope and unique features. Next, the mathematical and statistical basis of each method is presented along with advanced aspects. Using real-world data from the European Social Survey (ESS) and the Socio-Economic Panel (GSOEP), the book provides a comprehensive discussion of each method’s application, making this an ideal text for PhD students and researchers embarking on their own data analysis.
  applied regression analysis and generalized linear models: Data Analysis Using Regression and Multilevel/Hierarchical Models Andrew Gelman, Jennifer Hill, 2007 This book, first published in 2007, is for the applied researcher performing data analysis using linear and nonlinear regression and multilevel models.
  applied regression analysis and generalized linear models: Regression Modeling Strategies Frank E. Harrell, 2013-03-09 Many texts are excellent sources of knowledge about individual statistical tools, but the art of data analysis is about choosing and using multiple tools. Instead of presenting isolated techniques, this text emphasizes problem solving strategies that address the many issues arising when developing multivariable models using real data and not standard textbook examples. It includes imputation methods for dealing with missing data effectively, methods for dealing with nonlinear relationships and for making the estimation of transformations a formal part of the modeling process, methods for dealing with too many variables to analyze and not enough observations, and powerful model validation techniques based on the bootstrap. This text realistically deals with model uncertainty and its effects on inference to achieve safe data mining.
  applied regression analysis and generalized linear models: Modern Analysis of Biological Data Stanislav Pekár, Marek Brabec, 2016-01-01 Kniha je zaměřena na regresní modely, konkrétně jednorozměrné zobecněné lineární modely (GLM). Je určena především studentům a kolegům z biologických oborů a vyžaduje pouze základní statistické vzdělání, jakým je např. jednosemestrový kurz biostatistiky. Text knihy obsahuje nezbytné minimum statistické teorie, především však řešení 18 reálných příkladů z oblasti biologie. Každý příklad je rozpracován od popisu a stanovení cíle přes vývoj statistického modelu až po závěr. K analýze dat je použit populární a volně dostupný statistický software R. Příklady byly záměrně vybrány tak, aby upozornily na leckteré problémy a chyby, které se mohou v průběhu analýzy dat vyskytnout. Zároveň mají čtenáře motivovat k tomu, jak o statistických modelech přemýšlet a jak je používat. Řešení příkladů si může čtenář vyzkoušet sám na datech, jež jsou dodávána spolu s knihou.
