Evaluating Change in Adjusted R-Square and R-Square Indices: A Latent Variable Method Application

Abstract:
A procedure for interval estimation of the difference in the adjusted R-square index for nested linear models is discussed. The method yields as a byproduct confidence intervals for their standard R-square difference, as well as for the adjusted and standard R-squares associated with each model. The resulting interval estimate of the difference in adjusted R-square represents a useful and informative complement to the commonly used R-square change statistic and its significance test in model selection and contains substantially more information than that test. The outlined procedure is readily employed with popular software in empirical educational and psychological studies and is illustrated with numerical data.

Testing a Claim about Standard Deviation
The hypothesis testing for the claim of population standard deviation (or variance) requires the data and samples to be random and unbiased. The population distribution also must be normal. There is no specific requirement on the sample size as the estimation is based on the chi-square distribution.
As a first step, the hypothesis (null and alternative) concerning the claim about...

Decision Making: P-value Method
First, a specific claim about the population parameter is proposed. The claim is based on the research question and is stated in a simple form. Further, an opposing statement to the claim is also stated. These statements can act as null and alternative hypotheses: a null hypothesis would be a neutral statement while the alternative hypothesis can...
