In multiple regression analysis,each predictor has a "slope" (â)that is called a:

D)multiple r

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Each predictor in multiple regression has a regression coefficient (slope) which represents the change in the dependent variable associated with a one-unit change in that predictor, holding all other predictors constant. Therefore, the best choice is C. Factors, squared multiple correlation coefficient, and multiple r are not equivalent to the regression coefficient.
