So that predictor X should no longer be a significant predictor of Y.

We just had one predictor.

Then, we can look at the slopes for each individual predictor.

I'll use'X' and'Y' as I've been for the predictor and outcome respectively.

So for each predictor, we're gonna have one beta or one regression coefficient.

And, what we see is for time, it is a significant predictor for publications, it is the significant predictor that gender difference of 3,000 is not of significant difference in this analysis.

And just to see what happens. When we add in a second predictor. And for.

Uh, but for now, we'll just keep them as predictor and outcome. I'll use M for the mediator.

We'll just put one predictor in the regression equation.

All we're doing is testing the additive effects of each predictor.

Then. We would if we used any one predictor by itself.

So the first two conditions hold, x is a significant predictor.

Than either one of the simple models. With each individual predictor.

When we have more than one predictor especially, we're going to call that sum of squares for the model.

And if I've got a good predictor, it predicts the same thing.

So I prefer to use the terms outcome variable and predictor variable.

X is our predictor. So, that's thought to be an exogenous variable.

It can be predictive from some constant plus some predictor variable x times the regression coefficient for x plus error.

If the effects are just additive, then this third predictor won't be significant.

It's just lm (y tilde x). So lm outcome variable tilde predictor variable.

And, likewise, for X2, just area E, and for X3, just area C because those, those are the areas that are unique to each predictor.

Well, for simple regression, which was what we're doing right now, just one predictor variable, one outcome variable, it's really easy.

We just came up with a better predictor. But we could do other things.

As I said, you have to have x be a significant predictor of y. We have to have it so that x is a significant predictor of m. Those just have to hold.

But for now, it's important to remember what we're looking at here are the effects assuming the average level of every other predictor.

And we're going to predict faculty salary not from one predictor but from multiple predictors.

And this is one predictor. So, here are the coefficients that go into this equation.

The do you know test was the single biggest predictor of emotional health and happiness.

So this was a step forward for major league baseball in how they could evaluate players is getting a variable that's a better predictor.

More generally, this is why the training set error is not a good predictor for how well the hypothesis will do on new examples.

We said one predictor in the equation. Today, we're just going to enter in more predictors.

In the last lecture, we did simple regression, which is just one predictor in the regression equations.

Now, this didn't really come up much in simple regression because the model was just one predictor.

Each predictor will only get to sort of claim the variance and why that's unique to it.

So we're doing a better job at minimizing those prediction errors because we added in another predictor.

If you have more than one predictor in the model, that won't hold. But with one it is.

So it's a bit unique, this example where you've added in another predictor and they each get stronger.

You might have a little predictor, a neural simulator, of the physics of your body and your senses.

So, maybe happiness causes extraversion or diversity of life experiences is the, should have been the predictor variable.

Get our predicted score on y, it's a function of the regression constant plus some predictor times its' slope.

Generally speaking, it's a statistical analysis used to predict an outcome variable from on e or more predictor variables.

And the slope of the first predictor. So you have to subtract out those other things that we're estimating.

Now it's bad enough that breast density makes it hard to find a cancer, but it turns out that it's also a powerful predictor of your risk for breast cancer.

So we have all the variants in Y. Then we have some predictor variable X. Batting average or on base percentage.
