    Question

    A scatterplot (scatterplot) with the residuals of a regression on the Y-axis and the independent variable on the X-axis can be used to check the assumption that….


    1. FALSE: The standardized slope (Beta) and correlation coefficient (r) are always are the same size at any value of x (linearity).
    2. FALSE: The relationship between the dependent and independent variable is causal (causality).
    3. TRUE: The conditional standard deviation of y (sres) for each value of x is identical (constant variance).
    4. FALSE: The explained variance (R2) and the marginal variance are always are identical to each other (homogeneity).

    1. False
    2. False
    3. True
    4. False
