Two or more independent variables in a multiple regression are highly correlated with one another.

The association between two variables when no other variable is controlled.

Produced by omitting important variables from a statistical model.

Simultaneously controls for the effects of several independent variables.

In elaboration analysis, this controls for the extraneous variable.

In this elaboration outcome, an antecedent variable creates a spurious association between X and Y.

Shows the effect of X on Y while controlling for all other independent variables in a multiple regression analysis.

Multivariate analysis involving three-variable contingency tables.

This elaboration outcome increases confidence that the original relationship is nonspurious.

Refer to the random processes in a statistical model.

X → T → Y indicates that X has an ________ on Y.

In this elaboration outcome, the control variable is intervening and there is no association in either partial table.
