Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Regression analysis or multiple regression is an extension of bivariate correlation procedures (i.e., Pearson's r). The generic question underlying regression analysis is, "Can the value of a specific dependent variable (such as patients' heart rate) be predicted if the values for two or more independent variables (such as age and preoperative stress levels) are known?" The effect of age and preoperative stress on surgical complications does not identify a specific dependent variable and the effect of preoperative stress on heart rate and blood pressure has only one independent variable (preoperative stress).
