Classical regression analysis uses partial coefficients to measure the influences of some variables (regressors) on another variable (regressand). However, a descriptive point of view shows that these coefficients are very bad measures of influence. Their interpretation as an average change of...

The new measurement concept of ‘supplementary' influence is defined within the set-up of descriptive multiple regression analysis. The supplementary coefficient describes the average change of the regressand that can additionally be attributed to one regressor when several other regressors are...
