    Question

    In a study involving 30 subjects, the variable Blood Pressure is predicted based on Weight and Age. Regression squared is 285, residuals squared is 2400, and total squared is 2685.

    Another model is estimated; the two (standardized) regression equations are:

    Blood Pressure = 0:59 x Age + 0:34 x Weight

    Weight = 0:56 x Age

    What type of `multivariate relationship’ is being investigated here?


    1. FALSE: Interaction.
    2. FALSE: Chain relationship.
    3. FALSE: Multiple causes.
    4. TRUE: Direct and indirect effects.
