Linear Model
The General Linear Model underlies almost all Statistical Analysis and is the foundation store for other statistical methods such as T-test, Analysis of Variation (ANOVA), Regression Analysis and many of the multivariate methods including Factor Analysis, Cluster Analysis Discriminant Function Analysis and many others. In its simplest form, a linear model specifies the Linear relationship between a dependent or Response Variable (Y), and a set of predictor variables, the (X)s.
