Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The coefficient of determination (also known as R-squared) represents the proportion of shared variance between two measured variables. It is a statistical measure that indicates how well the regression line (or model) fits the observed data. It ranges from 0 to 1, where a value of 1 indicates a perfect fit and a value of 0 indicates no relationship.
