Coefficient of Determination (R2)

The coefficient of determination is a quantity shows the amount of variation of the dependent variable explained by the independent variables. In other words, the coefficient of determination is used to measure how far the independent variables in describing the dependent variable Coefficient X. The coefficient of determination is between zero (0) and one (1).

The value of determination coefficient is determined by R Square value as the data seen in the following table:

Table 3
Coeficient
Model R R Squre Adjusted R Square Std. Error of the estimate Durbin-Watson
1 0.983a 0.966 0.963 0.689 1.956
