Regression model
(1) Is this homework? (This list doesn't do homework for people!)
(Animals maybe, but not people! :-) )
(2) Your question isn't really an R question but rather a
statistics/linear modelling
question. It is possible that you might get some insight from Frank
Harrel's book
"Regression Modelling Strategies" (Springer, 2001).

Hi, I'm trying to fit regression model, but there is something wrong with it. The dataset contains 85 observations for 85 students.Those observations are counts of several actions, and dependent variable is final score. More precisely, I have 5 IV and one DV. I'm trying to build regression model to check whether those variables can predict the final score. I'm attaching output of several steps, but I tried to following procedure: - build model with only those two variables - summary shows that non of them is significant predictor of the final outcome. - test for multicollinearity revealed tolerance below 0.2 (potential problem) - build two new models having as a predictor only one of those values - both models show that variable used for the model is significant predictor. Separately they are significant, together not. Probably multicollinearity problem, but... - as I keep adding other variables to one or the other model, Multiple R-squared slightly increases. - I tried to compare different models using anova, but non of them seems to be better. How to determine which model is better?
