SPSS linear regression analysis

Question

Are there simple in-built SPSS functions for linear regression?

How do I get the residual series?

I want to perform a White test, Durbin-Watson (or inspect a correlogram of residuals), F-test for redundant variables and look at the Variance Inflation Factors.

I would have assumed that these would be standard functions for any stats package but I can't find them...

thanks!

Answer 1

I am puzzled why you can't find these. The are available in the REGRESSION procedure (Analyze > Regression > Linear) or GENLIN (Analyze > Generalized Linear Models) or ACF (Analyze > Forecasting > Autocorrelations).
