Dear All I want to study the effect on ROA for a pharmacy that has an online pharmacy department compared to pharmacies that don't. This is my regression: Return on assets = b0 + b1*ln(total assets) + b2*ln(firmage) + b3*leverage + b4*current ratio + b5*dummy online pharmacy + b6*dummy online...

With only a modest grasp of inferential stats and maths in general, I've been wondering how one might derive the weights for a weighted average from a variable that isn't as straightforward as a frequency score. Consider the following scenario. Let's say I have measurements of effectiveness for...

Hello Talk Stats Forum! I am working on building a Predictive Model using the binary logistic regression and LASSO logistic regression. In order to apply these models on some real data set I am using R software. Before performing such a model I am testing for multicollinearity and will remove...

Hello. I have 99 patients divided into subgroups according to the following variables: 1- Their syntax score (which measures how severe the obstruction in coronary arteries is). Values of this variable are between 10.2 and 41 and are classified into three levels, first 1-22, second 23 - 32...

Hi, We are conducting research on the relationship between self esteem and aggression. We have aggression scores and self esteem scores and we want to find out if there is a significant difference in the relationship by gender. We have ran a pearson's correlation for the relationship for the...

Hi everyone, I’m recently struggling with a situation below, may anyone be kind enough to offer me a helping hand please. Student / mins of leisure time / page studided / marks in exam A / 50 / 100 / 90 B / 55 / 85 / 80 C / 60 / 80 / 70 Now for student D, he has 50 mins leisure time and...

Hi, I am trying to find the agreement between 2 methods that estimate the size of a knee (CT and MRI). n brief, each knee can get a size from 1-7 where 1 represents the smallest size available and 7 represents the biggest size available. In my study, I have 100 different knees that were...

Hi, I have two data sets. In both sets there are 3 of the same variables (density, MOE and frequency). In addition to that, each set has one more variable (tension strength and bending strength). Since i can not measure both strengths on one piece, I would like to estimate the correlation (or...

In SPSS, is there a way to find out if there is a siginificant relationship between symptoms (on a scale from 0-3, with 3 = the worst) and hospital stay ("yes" or "no") are related?

Can I use chi-square test of independence if one variable is nominal and the other is ordinal, or do both have to be nominal?

1) If the correlation coefficient between two random variables X and Y is 0.5, then the correlation coefficient between 2X-4 and 3-2Y is? a. 1 b. 0.5 c. -0.5 d. 0 1) If the correlation coefficient between two random variables X and Y is 0.3, then the correlation coefficient between (2X+3)/5...

The variable is called "externalizing behaviours" and it has the numbers 9,7,7,3,11,6,2,6,6,9. I assume that the numbers show the amount of externalizing behaviour because the question says it was an observation. Is this interval/ratio? I think it is interval (rather than ordinal) because 7 is...

Suppose X~exp(.67), Y~exp(.8), Z~exp(.43). X and Y are correlated with a correlation coefficient of -0.6. Again X and Z are correlated with a correlation coefficient of -0.6. How can I generate data from X, Y and Z by incorporating this correlation. I know if they were uncorrelated, I could...

I am trying to ascertain the relationship between three variables; two independent and one dependent so I'm fairly confident that a multiple regression would be the correct choice. However I'm not sure if this is correct because of the fact that I have repeated measures. I have repeated...

Hi, I am performing mediation analysis, and have first of all looked at the correlation between variables. The zero order correlation between X and Y is positive and significant. However in the mediation analysis, the direct effect of X on Y (after holding the mediator constant) has a...

Hello, I'd really appreciate if someone can help me with a particular problem, concerning the approach I should take in statistically analysing the results of questionnaire data concerning intensity of use of social media, on the one hand, and social relationships on the other. The...

I've been searching for some time for a correlation metric analogous to the Pearson correlation value for numerical vs numerical features, or Cramér's V for categorical vs categorical features, but this time for categorical vs numerical features. This is my toy data example in Python, where...

Hi, I just registered to find some answers to probably very simple questions.. I hope those are not answered too often in the forum, but my computer gives me an error when I try to use the search function (maybe due to corporate internet restrictions). Starting situation 1: 4...

Hi there, So ive got a sample size of 400 Uni students, measuring a correlation between stress and exercise levels in minutes, and I received a non-significant results. Can anybody help explain why this is the case? Im having trouble interpreting it.
