Multiple Regression Analysis in Estimating Annual Salary
Multiple Regression Analysis
Multiple regression analysis is an extension of simple regression analysis. It uses two or more independent variables to estimate the value of a dependent variable. This method identifies the best-fitting line based on the method of least squares.
Additional Concepts
- Constant (b0 intercept): The value of the dependent variable (DV) in the regression equation when all independent variables (IVs) are equal to 0.
- Partial Regression Coefficient (conditional coefficient): Shows

Best Management Practices
BMPs are non-regulatory, but:
- Failure to apply voluntary BMPs could lead to mandatory forest practice laws later.
- Help maintain “public license.”
Voluntary BMPs are effectively mandatory in many states because of:
- Forest certification (SFI, SFC, Tree Farm)
- Professional certifications (Georgia master timber harvester)
- Tax incentives programs
- Timber sales on public land
- Water quality laws
SMZs:
- Perennial streams: 50 sq ft. basal area and 50% canopy cover.
- Intermittent streams: 25 sq
