2. (15 points; 7.5 points each part) a. Interpret the statistical significance of the age coefficient for fear of cyberstalking by intimate partner. b. Present statistical evidence to support your interpretation
Answer: A: The age coefficient for fear of cyberstalking by an intimate partner is -0.11 and it is statistically significant at .05 level of significance. It means when the age increases, the fear of cyberstalking by an intimate partner will go down by -.11.
B: The coefficient of age (-.11) is less than the level of significance…show more content… This means that when age increases by one, fear of Cyberstalkering by stranger will decreases by 0.09.
B. The estimated coefficient of age is greater than the level of significance 0.05. As a result, the null hypothesis is not rejected. Since we don’t reject it, it can be concluded that age is not statistically significantly related with Cyberstalkering by stranger.
5. (10 points) Assess the Adjusted R2 for each of the three regression models. Which model has the largest Adjusted R2? Explain your answer using empirical evidence.
Answer: The adjusted R2 for each of the three models is .496 for fear of cyberstalking by an intimate partner, .392 for fear of cyberstalking by a friend/acquaintance, and .538 for fear of cyberstalking by a stranger. It can be concluded that the largest adjusted R2 is fear of cyberstalking by a stranger at .538. 6. (10 points) Interpret the Adjusted R2 for the fear of cyberstalking by a stranger. Answer: The adjusted R2 for fear of cyberstalking by a stranger is .538. The means it accounts for 53.8% of the variability of the
