Online resources: This dataset example introduces simple regression, which allows researchers to evaluate whether a continuous dependent variable is a linear function of a single independent variable. The simple linear regression model is most commonly estimated via ordinary least squares (OLS), and is sometimes called OLS regression. This example analyses whether the size of an automobile's engine predicts the CO2 emissions of that automobile. Understanding such factors is important for making decisions about transportation policy, environmental policy, and climate policy.
