Lesson 13: More Linear Models

Overview Section

Here we'll extend what we learned in the last two chapters to regression models with multiple predictors and to ANCOVA (Analsysis of Covariance). We'll also briefly touch on more complex designs and on sing contrast to test specific between-group hypotheses.

Objectives

Upon completion of this lesson, you should be able to:

  • Fit and interpret regression models with multiple predictors
  • Fit and interpret ANCOVA models
  • Test specific contrasts from lm() objects
