TABLE 14-11
A weight-loss clinic wants to use regression analysis to build a model for weight-loss of a client (measured in pounds) . Two variables thought to affect weight loss are client's length of time on the weight loss program and time of session. These variables are described below:
Data for 12 clients on a weight-loss program at the clinic were collected and used to fit the interaction model:
Partial output from Microsoft Excel follows:
Regression Statistics
ANOVA
-Referring to Table 14-11, in terms of the β's in the model, give the average change in weight-loss (Y) for every 1 month increase in time in the program (X1) when attending the evening session.
