SCENARIO 15-6 Given Below Are Results from the Regression Analysis on 40

question 65

Short Answer

SCENARIO 15-6
Given below are results from the regression analysis on 40 observations where the dependent variable is the number of weeks a worker is unemployed due to a layoff (Y)and the independent variables are the age of the worker (X₁),the number of years of education received (X₂),the number of years at the previous job (X₃),a dummy variable for marital status (X₄: 1 = married,0 = otherwise),a dummy variable for head of household (X₅: 1 = yes,0 = no)and a dummy variable for management position (X₆: 1 = yes,0 = no).
The coefficient of multiple determination ( R ²_j )for the regression model using each of the 6 variables X _j as the dependent variable and all other X variables as independent variables are,respectively,
0.2628,0.1240,0.2404,0.3510,0.3342 and 0.0993.
The partial results from best-subset regression are given below:

-Referring to Scenario 15-6,what is the value of the Mallow's C_p statistic for the model that includes all the six independent variables?

Definitions:

Thrust Fault

A type of geological fault where one block of the earth's crust is pushed up and over another, typically at a low angle, due to compressional forces.

Normal Fault

A normal fault is a type of fault where the hanging wall slides downward relative to the footwall due to tensional forces.

Sedimentary Layers

Strata or layers of rock that have been formed from sediment deposition over vast periods of time.

Block Diagram

A diagram that portrays in three dimensions the shape of the land surface and the subsurface distributions of rock units, folds, faults, and other geologic features.
