Olejnik, Stephen; Mills, Jamie; Keselman, Harvey – Journal of Experimental Education, 2000
Evaluated the use of Mallow's C(p) and Wherry's adjusted R squared (R. Wherry, 1931) statistics to select a final model from a pool of model solutions using computer generated data. Neither statistic identified the underlying regression model any better than, and usually less well than, the stepwise selection method, which itself was poor for…
