    There are two predictors x1x_{1} and x2x_{2}, which have medium correlations with response variable y but are uncorrelated with each other. First x1x_{1} put into the model, and then x2x_{2} added.

    Enter:

    As x2x_{2} added to the model will be SSE … and the partial correlation ryx1x2r_{yx1x2} will … the ordinary correlation ryx1r_{yx1}.
