VIF and multicollinearity diagnostics

In the book I use the car package to get VIF and other multicollinearity diagnostics. I’ve occasionally found this breaks down (usually through mixing different versions of R on different machines at work home or on the move). I recently saw the mctest package and thought it would be useful to use that as a […]

CI for difference between independent R square coefficients

In an earlier blog post I provided R code for a CI of a difference in R square for dependent and non-dependent correlations. This was based on a paper by Zou (2007). That paper also provides a method for calculating the CI of a difference in independent R square coefficients based on the limits of […]

Multicollinearity and collinearity (in multiple regression) – a tutorial

This blog post was written for undergraduate research methods teaching. I have therefore tried to keep everything relatively simple and equation-free. The content is based loosely on more detailed material in my book Serious stats. What are collineari...
