Looking for a Beginner-Friendly Book on Parametric Regression?

[Jummeth]

Hi,

I hope this is the correct section, I am looking for a good starting book about Parametric Regression and Regression Diagnostics.

I am currently slogging through "Semi-Parametric regression" Ruppert et-al (2003) and I'd like a slightly easier book that goes slightly more slowly and with more explanations on Linear Regression.

Thanks muchly in advance.

A standard book is Greene's "Econometric Analysis", or easier, "Econometric Methods" by Jonhston and DInardo.
I know those, unfortunately, they are quite expensive.

Hi there,

Thank you for reaching out with your request for a book on regression. There are many great resources out there, so I'm sure you will find one that suits your needs. Here are a few suggestions for books on parametric regression and regression diagnostics:

1. "Introduction to Linear Regression Analysis" by Douglas C. Montgomery, Elizabeth A. Peck, and G. Geoffrey Vining. This book provides a comprehensive introduction to linear regression, including parametric and non-parametric methods, and covers regression diagnostics in detail.

2. "Applied Linear Statistical Models" by Michael H. Kutner, Christopher J. Nachtsheim, John Neter, and William Li. This book covers linear regression and its applications, including parametric and non-parametric methods, and also includes a section on regression diagnostics.

3. "Regression Analysis by Example" by Samprit Chatterjee and Ali S. Hadi. This book presents regression analysis in a practical and intuitive way, making it easier for beginners to understand. It also includes a chapter on regression diagnostics.

I hope these suggestions are helpful to you. Happy reading!
