Effects (linear models)

This view displays the size of each effect in the model.

Styles. There are different display styles, which are accessible from the Style dropdown list.

  • Diagram. This is a chart in which effects are sorted from top to bottom by decreasing predictor importance. Connecting lines in the diagram are weighted based on effect significance, with greater line width corresponding to more significant effects (smaller p-values). Hovering over a connecting line reveals a tooltip that shows the p-value and importance of the effect. This is the default.
  • Table. This is an ANOVA table for the overall model and the individual model effects. The individual effects are sorted from top to bottom by decreasing predictor importance. Note that by default, the table is collapsed to only show the results for the overall model. To see the results for the individual model effects, click the Corrected Model cell in the table.

Predictor importance. There is a Predictor Importance slider that controls which predictors are shown in the view. This does not change the model, but simply allows you to focus on the most important predictors. By default, the top 10 effects are displayed.

Significance. There is a Significance slider that further controls which effects are shown in the view, beyond those shown based on predictor importance. Effects with significance values greater than the slider value are hidden. This does not change the model, but simply allows you to focus on the most important effects. By default the value is 1.00, so that no effects are filtered based on significance.
