Stepwise multiple regression is used to determine the most significant independent variables to include in the regression equation. It selects variables based on their ability to explain the most variance in the dependent variable while also accounting for multicollinearity and overfitting. Standard multiple regression is not as effective at identifying the most significant variables, as it does not take these factors into account. Linear and polynomial regression are specific types of multiple regression and do not address the selection of variables.
