- Synopsis
- "Spline variables and their interactions play a crucial role in the field of social science. This book offers a comprehensive and detailed exploration of this method, providing valuable insights and information for researchers in the field." --Man-Kit Lei, The University of Georgia This volume addresses the issue of linear constraints in regression modeling. Author Roger A. Wojtkiewicz uses the method of knotted spline variables (also known as piecewise linear regression) and a new method involving group spline variables to model nonlinearity in a variety of situations. Using spline variables to model nonlinearity allows researchers to specify unrestricted models for models that involve interval variables, allowing for greater flexibility in modeling any possible interaction.
