Abstract

Heterogeneity Linear Analysis Methodology (Data Analysis) Regression Analysis
In some linear regression problems, samples may be unwittingly drawn from a population that is heterogeneous in respect to intercept. For such problems, an exploratory method is developed to identify influential subgroups of a heterogeneous population. Discriminant analysis is used to characterize, interpret, & validate subgroups. Four criteria are proposed to select a set of influential subgroups, which are then used in estimating a linear regression model. The method is illustrated through analysis of real data on political violence. 3 Tables, 2 Figures, 33 References. HA
