摘要:
SummaryMiscellaneous comments are made on regression analysis under four broad headings: regression of a dependent variable on a single regressor variable; regression on many regressor variables; analysis of bivariate and multivariate populations; models with components of variation.

摘要:
SummaryMuch of what we know in science is as yet confused by uncertainty. But implicit in our observed phenomena are many lawlike relationships saying that ifthisoccurs, so doesthat. The systematic uncovering of such relationships and their subsequent applications to practical problems are how science and how technology progress.The meaning of a lawlike relationship lies in the variety of empirical conditions under which it is known to hold. Such generalized or lawlike relationships are of course familiar and widely used in practice, but the statistical literature does not give much explicit help in deriving them. The present paper tries to set out some elementary aspects by means of a simple case‐history.

摘要:
SummaryRegression models of the second kind are considered, in which a joint probability distribution is assigned to the parameters of the model rather than to the dependent and independent variates. The estimation of the vector of means and of the variance matrix of this distribution is exemplified for the linear model, and a method given for constraining the latter estimates to be positive–definite. The relevance to models of functional and structural relationship is discussed, together with complications introduced by superimposed errors of measurement. Finally models of the second kind are related to general criteria for successful model‐building.

摘要:
SummaryThe Central Registers of the National Health Service are first described, and then the details of how a sample of nearly 20,000 individual records was drawn from the Central Register for Scotland are given. A method of arriving at numbers of migrants from the register is evolved, making various allowances for shortcomings in the register data. These results are compared with net migration as indicated by the 1951 and 1961 censuses, and their comparison supports one particular method of adjusting Health Service records of migration to a basis comparable with the old National Register statistics.

摘要:
SummaryThe relationship between external examination results at school and performance at university has prompted a good deal of comment and a certain amount of research. This study examines this relationship in detail for a particular subject, economics, which has seen the most rapid expansion in the numbers of A‐level candidates since the institution of the G.C.E. in 1951, by tracing the performance of students passing through a single British university over a 15‐year period. In view of the frequent observation that, in general, school study of economics scarcely helps university performance in the same subject, the authors incorporated into their multiple correlation analysis, in addition to the commonly employed types of data on the students, certain specially collected details relating to their school background. The results throw light on a number of associations between particular characteristics of students and their performance in economics at university.

摘要:
SummaryIt has been said of university students that the better degree results tend to be obtained on the average by younger candidates, although objective evidence on this is somewhat conflicting. This paper presents a detailed analysis of data from a number of sources, showing that this effect exists for some, but not all, subjects of study; and that it is really a function, not of age as a continuous variable, but of the number of years spent in secondary school.
