Objectives

On completion of this period, you would be able

to understand
 Properties of Regression coefficients
 Formulas for finding the Regression equations
through regression coefficients

ccp-403/28-29 2
RECAP

 In the last class we discussed about solving of

Regression Equations through normal equations.
 Finding the value of Y for the give value of X

ccp-403/28-29 3
 PROPERTIES OF REGRESSION
COEFFICIENTS

 Both the Regression Coefficients cannot exceed

one.
 One of the Regression Coefficients must be less
than one.

ccp-403/28-29 4
Continued

 Both the Regression Coefficients will have the

same sign.
 Either they will be positive or negative.
 The Coefficient of Correlation will have the same
sign as that of Regression Coefficients

ccp-403/28-29 5
Continued

For two variables X and Y there are two

Regression Equations namely.
 Regression Equation of X on Y and

 Regression Equation of Y on X

ccp-403/28-29 6
Continued

 The Regression line of Y on X gives the most

probable values of Y for given value of X
 The Regression line of X on Y gives
the most probable value of values of X for given
Values of Y.

REGRESSION EQUATION OF X ON Y

σX
 X - X = r σY (Y - Y)

 X = Mean of X series, Y = Mean of Y series.

σX
 r σY is called regression Co-efficient of X on Y

 X on Y and it is denoted by the symbol bxy

ccp-403/28-29 8
REGRESSION EQUATION OF X ON Y
WHEN DEVIATIONS ARE TAKEN FROM
ACTUAL MEAN

 If the deviations are taken from actual mean, we

need not calculate co-efficient of correlation ( r ), σx
and σy.
 In such cases, r σX ( or bxy) = ∑xy
σY
∑y2

, y=Y- Y
Where x = X - X

ccp-403/28-29 9
 WHEN DEVIATIONS ARE TAKEN
FROM ASSUMED MEAN

If the deviations are taken from assumed mean.

∑dxdy ∑dxdy
σX N
r σY =
∑y2 (∑dy)2
N

Where dx = X-A and dy = Y-A

ccp-403/28-29 10
 REGRESSION EQUATION OF Y ON X

σy
 Y- Y = r (X-X )
σx

σy
 r σx is called regression coefficient of Y on X
and it is denoted by the symbol b yx

ccp-403/28-29 11
REGRESSION COEFFICIENT OF Y ON X
 If deviation are taken from actual mean.
σx
 r σy (or byx) = ∑xy
∑x2

 If the deviations are taken from assumed mean.

 r σy/ σx = ∑dxdy - ∑dx . ∑dy/ N
or b yx ∑dx2 - (∑dx)2 / N

Where dx = X-A and dy = Y-A

ccp-403/28-29 12
 Continued

 With the help of two regression co-efficients, it is

possible to calculate correlation coefficient ( r)
symbolically.
 i.e. bxy=r byx=r

σy
σx
bxy x byx =r σy x r σx
 r2 = σx σy
σy σx

r = √ bxy x byx ccp-403/28-29 13
