Abstract | The logarithmic transformation is a commonly applied procedure in regression analysis when two or more variables have a nonlinear relationship. When the response variable is logarithmically transformed, confidence intervals for conditional means and predictions may actually be wider than their counterparts obtained from the model with the original data. A mathematical approach and simulation are both used to analyze this result. (Contains 4 figures, 1 table, and 1 footnote.) (As Provided). |
