... managed down. This is admittedly a crude measure of manipulation. There may be a large residual simply because the regression model excludes a key variable. In some instances, we may not care if earnings are being managed up or down, just whether there is any funny business going on. In this case, w ...

In this equation, standardized regression coefficients (b, or "beta") measure the change in standard deviations produced in the dependent variable resulting (other variables again held constant) from an increase of one standard deviation in an independent variable. It is thus possible to compare the ...

... (a) What is the difference in predicted body length for two babies of gestational age x, where one of the mothers was toxemic, and the other was not? (Note: the answer should be a formula, not a number.) ±{(2.0 + 1.0x − 3.0 − 0.5x) − (2.0 + 1.0x)}or ± {−3.0 − 0.5x} (subtract 1 point for each error. ...

Interaction (statistics)
In statistics, an interaction may arise when considering the relationship among three or more variables, and describes a situation in which the simultaneous influence of two variables on a third is not additive. Most commonly, interactions are considered in the context of regression analyses.The presence of interactions can have important implications for the interpretation of statistical models. If two variables of interest interact, the relationship between each of the interacting variables and a third ""dependent variable"" depends on the value of the other interacting variable. In practice, this makes it more difficult to predict the consequences of changing the value of a variable, particularly if the variables it interacts with are hard to measure or difficult to control.The notion of ""interaction"" is closely related to that of ""moderation"" that is common in social and health science research: the interaction between an explanatory variable and an environmental variable suggests that the effect of the explanatory variable has been moderated or modified by the environmental variable.
