Question
To find the p-value for testing whether one of the parameters of a multiple regression model significantly contribute to the prediction of Y, the following area under the curve must be calculated
the area to the right of t-statistic
twice the area to the right of the positive value of t-statistic
the area to the left of F-statistic
the area to the right of t-statistic
none of the above
the area to the right of t-statistic
twice the area to the right of the positive value of t-statistic
the area to the left of F-statistic
the area to the right of t-statistic
none of the above
Explanation / Answer
Since, we are interested in testing the significance of a
predictor variable, the alternative hypothesis will be two-tailed.
Hence, the p-value will be twice the area to the right of the
positive value of t-statistic.
Hence, 2nd Option is the correct choice. (Ans).
