Making inverse predictions

Predict the values of the predictors at a specific value or values of the response variable.

You can only make inverse predictions when fitting a simple regression model.

  1. Activate the analysis report worksheet.
  2. On the Analyse-it ribbon tab, click Predict, and then click X given Y.
    The analysis task pane Inverse Predict X given Y panel opens.
  3. In the Predictions list box, under the Y column, type the values for the response variable.
  4. Optional: In the Confidence interval edit box, type the confidence level, and then in the drop-down list, select the confidence bounds. Finally, in the Method drop-down list, select Simultaneous for intervals that ensure you achieve the confidence level simultaneously for all predictions, or Individual for intervals only that ensure confidence for each individual prediction.
  5. Optional: On the Fit panel, in the Predicted values drop-down list, select the style to plot the predicated values on the scatter plot.
  6. Click Recalculate.
