Test whether or not the addition of 3 variables to a model will be statistically significant.

Partial Model
Observations = sample of 25
Y hat = 62.42 - 1.836X1 + 25.62X2
SSE = 725

Full Model
The equation with additional 3 variables.
Y hat = 59.23 - 1.762X1 + 25.638X2 + 16.237X3 + 15.297X4 - 18.723X5
SSE = 520

Test the null hypothesis that the three variables X3, X4, and X5 do not belong in the model at the five percent level of significance.

Measures of Central Tendency

This quiz evaluates the students understanding of the measures of central tendency seen in statistics. This quiz is specifically designed to incorporate the measures of central tendency as they relate to psychological research.

Know Your Statistical Concepts

Each question is a choice-summary multiple choice question that presents you with a statistical concept and then 4 numbered statements. You must decide which (if any) of the numbered statements is/are true as they relate to the statistical concept.
