Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Linear regression is the best choice for examining the association between two variables and predicting values on the dependent variable given values on the independent variable. Linear regression involves modeling the relationship between the dependent variable and one or more independent variables as a straight line, allowing for predictions to be made based on the values of the independent variable(s). The other options (Pearson's r, gamma, multiple regression, and chi-square) have different applications and are not as well-suited for predicting values on a dependent variable.
