Hi, I have a scatter plot of the variables GNI and Lifeexp (Gross National Income and Life Expectancy, both metric). So I plotted them and I want to add a regression line and a lowess line. I use lowess and not loess because I have missing values. My code: plot(GNI,Lifeexp) abline(lm(Lifeexp~GNI), col="red") y.loess<-loess(Lifeexp~GNI,na. acti...

Hi, I want to make model selection with regsubsets. My code is: a<-regsubsets(Gesamt ~ CommunistSocialist + CountrySize + GNI + Lifeexp + Schoolyears + ExpMilitary + Mortality + PopPoverty + PopTotal + ExpEdu + ExpHealth, data=olympiadaten, nbest=2) summary(a) plot(a,scale="adjr2") (output attached) The problem is now, that I want to fit the best model again "manually" and have a look at it, but the value of...

Hi, I have 12 independent variables and one dependent variable. Now I want to select the best adj. R squared model by using the regsubsets command, so I code: > plot(regsubsets(Gesamt ~ CommunistSocialist + CountrySize + GNI + Lifeexp + Schoolyears + ExpMilitary + Mortality + + PopPoverty + PopTotal + ExpEdu + ExpHealth, data=olympiadaten, nbest=1, nvmax=12), scale='adjr2') Then I get the picture I attached. The problem is, that the best model has an adjusted R squard of 0.49. But if I regress e.g. my y on only the va...
