Selecting Variables into a Regression Equation
...Equation Selecting Variables into a Regression Equation To develop a regression equation an imaginary study has been considered which is aimed at determining the effect of socio-economic conditions on injuries amongst children. For this study, the dependent variable is the number of injuries amongst children and the independent variables (predictors) (Wang & Jain, 2003) and their assigned values are identified as parenting status (single, married, or divorced), parent education level (primary, college, or university), parent income level (Less than $20,000p.a., Between $20,001p.a. and $50,000p.a., Between $50,001p.a. and $100,000p.a., Above $100,000), density...
