Tutorial Twelve will cover other options, including how to use more than one independent variable. Make sure that Enter is showing in the M ethod box. Click OK to start the procedure. Four tables are then produced. The first lists the independent variables in the equation and the regression method chosen.
R gives the correlation between the predictor variable and the dependent variable.
R 2 is the proportion of variance in the dependent variable predictable or explained by the independent variable. Note that the regression sum sum of squares divided by the total sum of squares is equal to R 2 . That's why R 2 is often referred to as variance explained . The slope or B is 2.647. Don't be alarmed by the fact that the value for the intercept is negative.
