9.18 a) Using forward stepwise regression to find the best subset of predictor variables to predict job proficiency. The Alpha-to-Enter significance level was set at 0.05 and the Alpha-to-Leave significance level was set at 0.10. The first predictor entered into the stepwise model is X3. SAS tells us that the estimated intercept is -106.13 and the estimated slope for X3 is 1.968. The R2-value is 0.8047‚ mean square error is 76.87. The second predictor entered into the stepwise model is X1.

Lecture 1. Descriptive statistics includes statistical procedures that we use to describe the population we are studying. The data could be collected from either a sample or a population‚ but the results help us organize and describe data. Descriptive statistics can only be used to describe the group that is being studying. That is‚ the results cannot be generalized to any larger group. Inferential statistics is concerned with making predictions or inferences about a population from observations
