CRITERIA Subcommand (REGRESSION command)

CRITERIA controls the statistical criteria used to build the regression equations. The way in which these criteria are used depends on the method specified on METHOD. The default criteria are noted in the description of each CRITERIA keyword below.

• The minimum specification is a criterion keyword and its arguments, if any.
• If CRITERIA is omitted or included without specifications, the default criteria are in effect.
• The CRITERIA subcommand must be specified before DEPENDENT and METHOD subcommands. The last specified CRITERIA affects all equations.
