Part -1

Make sure you read the output carefully. This output pertains to a set of juvenile court data looking at the length of time that juvenile offenders are held in secure detention while their case is being processed through juvenile court. For this regression model, the following variables are used:

LOS: the length of stay in detention, in days

Number of filed charges: the number of different crimes they are currently charged with

Number of prior JD/JS cases: the number of prior juvenile court cases

Number of prior felonies: the number of prior charges for felonies

offlevel: this measure indicates the severity of the most serious charge they are charged with, where 0 is for the least severe and 8 is for the most severe

female: a dummy variable coded 0 for males and 1 for females

black: a dummy variable coded 1 for blacks

otherrac: a dummy variable coded 1 for the "other race" category (Note that when black and other race are in the model together, then the 0 category on each variable refers to whites)

The following questions pertain to the data:

a) What is the equation for this regression model?

b) Write one sentence describing what we have learned about the relationship between the dependent variable and each of the independent variables found to have a statistically significant relationship on the dependent variable. Write a sentence for each relationship. Be specific.

c) What can you conclude about the fit of the model? Explain.

d) What concerns, if any, can you raise about the model, based on the information provided here on the output? Explain.

Part-2

Pay equity for men and women has been an ongoing source of conflict for a number of years in North America. Suppose that a statistics practitioner is investigating the factors that affect salary differences between male and female university professors. He believes that the following variables have some impact on a professor's salary:

Number of years since first degree (years)

Highest degree, coded 1 for Ph.D and 0 otherwise (phd)

Average score on teaching evaluations (evaluati)

Number of articles published (articles)

Gender, coded 1 if male and 0 if female (gender)

The following questions pertain to the data:

a) What is the equation for this regression model?

b) Write one sentence describing what we have learned about the relationship between the dependent variable and each of the independent variables found to have a statistically significant relationship on the dependent variable. Write a sentence for each relationship. Be specific.

c) What can you conclude about the fit of the model? Explain.

d) What concerns can you raise about the model, based on the information provided here on the output? Explain.
