Multiple Choice

Multicollinearity is:

• A)a statistical procedure that estimates regression equation coefficients which produce the lowest sum of squared differences between the actual and predicted values of the dependent variable.
• B)a statistical technique which analyzes the linear relationship between a dependent variable and multiple independent variables by estimating coefficients for the equation for a straight line.
• C)an estimated regression coefficient which has been recalculated to have a mean of zero and a standard deviation of 1.
• D)a statistic which compares the amount of variation in the dependent measure "explained" or associated with the independent variables to the "unexplained" or error variance.
• E)a situation in which several independent variables are highly correlated with each other.
