Linear Regression

t

Test

Command:

LinRegTTest

Description: This command treats two groups of data as paired variables (

x

,

y

). The method

of least squares is used to determine the most appropriate pair for the

a

,

b

coefficients of the regression formula

y

=

a

+

b

.

x

. It also determines the

correlation coefficient and

t

value, and calculates the strength of the

relationship between

x

and

y

.

a

: regression constant term (

y

-intercept)

b

: regression coefficient (slope)

n

: sample size (

n

> 3)

r

: correlation coefficient

r

2

: coefficient of determination

Command Syntax

“β &

ρ condition”, XList, YList, Freq (or 1)

* “Freq” can be omitted. Doing so sets “1” for “Freq”.

Definition of Terms

β &

ρ condition :

test conditions (“≠” specifies two-tail test, “<” specifies lower
one-tail test, “>” specifies upper one-tail test.)

XList :

x

-data list

YList :

y

-data list

Freq :

frequency (1 or list name)

Input Example:

LinRegTTest “≠”,list1,list2,1

Calculation Result Output

β ≠ 0 & ρ ≠ 0 :
