Overview of the Fit Y by X Platform<br />

The Fit Y by X platform is a collection of four specific platforms (or types of analyses).<br />

Specific<br />

Platform<br />

Modeling Types Description Reference<br />

Bivariate<br />

Continuous Y by<br />

continuous X<br />

Analyzes the relationship between<br />

two continuous variables<br />

See Performing<br />

Bivariate <strong>Analysis</strong>.<br />

Oneway<br />

Continuous Y by<br />

nominal<br />

or ordinal X<br />

Analyzes how the distribution of a<br />

continuous Y variable differs across<br />

groups defined by a categorical X<br />

variable<br />

Logistic<br />

Nominal or<br />

ordinal Y by<br />

continuous X<br />

Fits the probabilities for response<br />

categories to a continuous X<br />

predictor<br />
