Hallo, I am totally confused why Excel and R give me totally different regression results for the data below. If you know the solution, please enlighten me.
In Excel I used LINEST() and Data>Data Analysis>Regression and both (fortunately) gave the same result. The coefficients were: /b0=1.16, b1=0.957, b2=0.024, R2=0.0027, adjusted R2=-0.017/ In R I used model<-lm(as.numeric(test[,1]) /(wave sign here)/ as.numeric(test[,2]) + as.numeric(test[,3])) The result is: /Coefficients: Estimate Std. Error t value Pr(>|t|) (Intercept) 3.514 28.913 0.122 0.904 as.numeric(test[, 2]) 0.423 1.027 0.412 0.681 as.numeric(test[, 3]) 6.629 4.194 1.581 0.117 Residual standard error: 29.19 on 98 degrees of freedom Multiple R-squared: 0.02706, Adjusted R-squared: 0.007204 F-statistic: 1.363 on 2 and 98 DF, p-value: 0.2607 / Does anybody know what is going on? Thank you for your time!
