Properties of the Coefficient of Determination
< Prev
Next >

Regarding the coefficient of determination $$$$r^2$$$$ in a regression analysis, rank the following statements in order of logical interpretation from most central to more descriptive details. That is, start with the primary definition and progress to additional properties:

  1. Represents the percentage of variability in the response variable explained by the linear model.
  2. Equals 1 minus the proportion of unexplained variation.
  3. Indicates the association strength without implying causation.
  4. Is the square of the correlation coefficient.

TITLE: Coefficient of Determination Interpretation: #000000

Property Description
1 Represents the percentage of variability in $$y$$ explained by the model.
2 Equals 1 minus the proportion of unexplained variation.
3 Is the square of the correlation coefficient (thus non-negative).
4 Indicates association strength without implying causation.
A

Indicates association strength (without causation), Square of the correlation coefficient, Percentage of variability explained, 1 minus unexplained variability (this order begins with a secondary property rather than the primary definition)

B

Square of the correlation coefficient, Percentage of variability explained, 1 minus unexplained variability, Indicates association strength (without causation)

C

Percentage of variability explained, 1 minus unexplained variability, Indicates association strength (without causation), Square of the correlation coefficient

D

1 minus unexplained variability, Percentage of variability explained, Square of the correlation coefficient, Indicates association strength (without causation)
