How can we tell if the knock hill result is an outlier. Regression with stata chapter 2 regression diagnostics. The studentized residuals are similar, but involve estimating sigma in a way that leaves out the ith data point when calculating the ith residual some authors call these the. This means that each raw residual belongs to different populations one for each different standard error. You can get this program from stata by typing search iqr see how can i used the. The rstudent function or residuals object, typerstudent calculates externally standardized residuals also called standardized deleted residuals or externally studentized residuals. Understand the concept of an influential data point. Luckily, with the separate stat transfer program, it is very easy to. As we discussed in class, the predicted value of the outcome variable can be created using the regression model. Standardized residuals, in spss, divide by the standar.
It makes me think that studentized deleted residuals and dffits are not applicable in logistic regression. A studentized residual is calculated by dividing the residual by an estimate of its standard deviation. Should i look at raw, standardized, or studentized. What is the difference between internal and external studentized residuals. We can choose any name we like as long as it is a legal stata variable name. A simple way to allow for this fact is to divide the raw residual by an estimate of its standard deviation, calculating the standardized or internally studentized residual. I can access the list of residuals in the ols results, but not studentized residuals. This handout shows you how stata can be used for ols regression.
I want to delete studentized residuals that have an absolute value greater than or equal to two to delete outliers because i want to test. A rule of thumb is that outliers are points whose standardized residual is greater than 3. The standard deviation for each residual is computed with the observation excluded. Residuals, standardized residuals, studentized residuals. Basics of stata this handout is intended as an introduction to stata. If the estimate of the residual s variance does not involve the i th observation, it is called an externally studentized residual. In the lower left hand corner, you have the option to replace the current chart on the residual plot chart sheet or to generate the chart on a new chart sheet.

I was checking for outliers from a regression, and found using rogers package qqvalue useful. Standard errors of the forecast, prediction, and residuals. Externally studentized residuals are often preferred over internally studentized residuals because they have wellknown distributional properties in standard linear models for independent data.
Unless the leverages of all the runs in a design are identical, the standard errors of the residuals are different. Residuals that are scaled by the estimated variance of the response, i.

Patrick breheny the terms studentized and standardized are sometimes used differently by different authors and software packages.
How to delete studentized residuals with absolute values greater than or equal to two after conducting areg procedure. In general, externally studentized residuals are going to be more effective for detecting outlying y observations than internally studentized residuals. For this reason, studentized residuals are sometimes referred to as externally studentized residuals. Note that diagnostics based on ols, including studentized residuals, are very sensitive to outliers. So after we have estimated our regression using any package whether it be spss, stata, eviews, r, sas, minitab these are the commonly used ones, we are taught to look at the plot of the residuals. You might encounter other residuals in sasstat software. Externally studentized residuals are the best metric to use for this plot. The externally standardized residual for the \i\th case is obtained by deleting the \i\th case from the dataset, fitting the model based on the remaining cases, calculating the predicted value for the \i\th case based on the fitted model, taking the difference between the observed and the predicted value for the \i\th case which yields.
