Regression analysis is a method used in statistics to show a relationship between two different variables, and to describe how well you can predict the behavior of one variable from the behavior of another. Residual standard deviation is also referred to as the standard deviation of points around a fitted line or the standard error of estimate.
Residual standard deviation is a goodness-of-fit measure that can be used to analyze how well a set of data points fit with the actual model. In a business setting for example, after performing a regression analysis on multiple data points of costs over time, the residual standard deviation can provide a business owner with information on the difference between actual costs and projected costs, and an idea of how much-projected costs could vary from the mean of the historical cost data.
To calculate the residual standard deviation, the difference between the predicted values and actual values formed around a fitted line must be calculated first. This difference is known as the residual value or, simply, residuals or the distance between known data points and those data points predicted by the model.
To calculate the residual standard deviation, plug the residuals into the residual standard deviation equation to solve the formula. Start by calculating residual values.
For example, assuming you have a set of four observed values for an unnamed experiment, the table below shows y values observed and recorded for given values of x:.
In this case, the actual and predicted values are the same, so the residual value will be zero. You would use the same process for arriving at the predicted values for y in the remaining two data sets. Expanding the table above, you calculate the residual standard deviation:. Calculate the denominator of the equation as:.

When you run a regression, Stats iQ automatically calculates and plots residuals to help you understand and improve your regression model. Read below to learn everything you need to know about interpreting residuals including definitions and examples.
That 50 is your observed or actual output, the value that actually happened. In this case, the prediction is off by 2; that difference, the 2, is called the residual. The most useful way to plot the residuals, though, is with your predicted values on the x-axis and your residuals on the y-axis. Stats iQ presents residuals as standardized residuals, which means every residual plot you look at with any model is on the same standardized y-axis.
In the plot on the right, each point is one day, where the prediction made by the model is on the x-axis and the accuracy of the prediction is on the y-axis. The distance from the line at 0 is how bad the prediction was for that value. Also, some of the residuals are positive and some are negative as we mentioned earlier. The whole point of calculating residuals is to see how well the regression line fits the data. Larger residuals indicate that the regression line is a poor fit for the data, i.
Smaller residuals indicate that the regression line fits the data better, i. One useful type of plot to visualize all of the residuals at once is a residual plot. A residual plot is a type of plot that displays the predicted values against the residual values for a regression model. This type of plot is often used to assess whether or not a linear regression model is appropriate for a given dataset and to check for heteroscedasticity of residuals.

For example, with the line of best fit the predicted value is the value on the line that corresponds to a specific independent value.
Take a look at the graph. The y-coordinate values on the line of best fit match the x-values from the data set. Now let's use the Regression Activity to calculate a residual!
The labels x and y are used to represent the independent and dependent variables correspondingly on a graph. These given y-values dependent variables are the measured values for the specified x-values independent variables. Now, let's graph the line of best fit by selecting Display line of best fit and see where the predicted values lie on the graph.
