In this video we'll extend the use of the formula interface in lm() to specify multiple continuous predictor variables.

Here we'll continue our discussion of multiple regression.

By now we've fit models with one or more continuous predictors and one or more categorical predictors. In ANCOVA we combine continuous and categorical predictors. Once again lm() is the tool of choice. Here we'll focus on interpreting the coefficients in the ouput from summary().

In this second video on ANCOVA we'll conclude with interpretation of the results and we'll compare the output to graphical representation of the model.

Functions like anova() and aov() in R return Type I sums of squares, while some other statistical programs return type Type III sums of squares. He're we'll give an overview of what tham means and how it affects interpretation.

Since all linear models are subject to the same regression assumptions, there are occasions where a resistant regression method might be appropriate. Here we'll look at a resistan regression method in R.

We previously learned about using TukeyHSD() for making all pairwise comparisons between groups in a model. In some cases we only want to make specific comparisons, and don't want to lose statistical power by correcting for the larger number of comparisons. Here we show how to specify contrasts from a linear model.

There are many possilbe experimental designs, and the details of the design can have important implications for how the data is analyzed. Here we'll look at the example of a split-plot design, and consider how to analyze such an experiment in R.
