Multicollinearity Reconsidered

Authors: not saved
Abstract:

In this paper we intend to improve the explanatory power of regressions when the deletion method is used for the remedy of Multicolinearity. If one deletes the variable (s) that is (are) responsible for Multicolinearity, he loses some information that is not common between the deleted variable (s) and the other remaining variables in the regression. To improve this method, we run the deleted variable (s) on the remaining variable (s) and use its residual as a new regressor in the main regression. Here we also focus on the Multicolinearity concept that is related to the population and samples separately. We will also show if one encounters with perfect Multicolinearity he can delete one of the variables without any biasedness costs. The procedure that saves some of the variables in the regression and input residuals of the other variable as regressors will give us ‘net effect regression’.

Multicollinearity: Causes, Effects And

If there is no linear relationship between the regressors, they are said to be orthogonal. Multicollinearity is a case of multiple regression in which the predictor variables are themselves highly correlated. If the goal is to understand how the various X variables impact Y, then multicollinearity is a big problem. Multicollinearity is a matter of degree, not a matter of presence or absence. In...

On the Misconception of Multicollinearity in Detection of Moderating Effects: Multicollinearity Is Not Always Detrimental.

Due to its extensive applicability and computational ease, moderated multiple regression (MMR) has been widely employed to analyze interaction effects between 2 continuous predictor variables. Accordingly, considerable attention has been drawn toward the supposed multicollinearity problem between predictor variables and their cross-product term. This article attempts to clarify the misconceptio...

Multicollinearity in cross-sectional regressions

The robustness of the results coming from an econometric application depends to a great extent on the quality of the sampling information. This statement is a general rule that becomes especially relevant in a spatial context where data usually have lots of irregularities. The purpose of this paper is to examine more closely this question paying attention to the impact of multicollinearity. It ...

Multicollinearity and maximum entropy estimators

Multicollinearity hampers empirical econometrics. The remedies proposed to date suffer from pitfalls of their own. The ridge estimator is not generally accepted as a vital alternative to the ordinary least−squares (OLS) estimator because it depends upon unknown parameters. The generalized maximum entropy estimator depends upon subjective exogenous information. This paper presents a novel maximu...

Multicollinearity Robust QAP for Multiple-Regression

The quadratic assignment procedures for inference on multiple-regression coefficients(MRQAP) has become popular in social network analysis. These tests have been developed to assess the sizes of a set of multiple-regression coefficients. However, research practitioners often use these tests to assess the size of individual multiple-regression coefficients. Although this might be a harmless exte...
