Two Simple Regression Models Were Used to Predict a Single

question 14

True/False

Two simple regression models were used to predict a single dependent variable. Both models were highly significant, but when the two independent variables were placed in the same multiple regression model for the dependent variable, R² did not increase substantially and the parameter estimates for the model were not significantly different from 0. This is probably an example of collinearity.
