Y 0 1 X 1 r 1 X r 1 .
Step 1:
Step 2a:
If Fl F0 or tl t0 , then
can be deleted and the new original model is
Xl
Y 0 1 X 1 l 1 X l 1 l 1 X l 1 r 1 X r 1 .
Go back to step 1.
Step 2b:
Example (continue):
Suppose the preselected significance level is 0.1. Thus, F0 F1,8, 0.9 3.14.
Step 1:

Y 0 1 X 1 2 X 2 3 X 3 4 X 4 .
F3 0.018 corresponding to H 03 : 3 0 is the smallest partial F value.
Step 2a:
Fl 0.018 F0 3.14 .
Thus, X 3 can be deleted. Go back to step 1.
Step 1:
The new original model is
.
Y 0 1 X 1 2 X 2 4 X 4
F4 1.86 corresponding to H 04 : 4 0 is the smallest partial F value.
Step 2a:
F4 1.86 F0 3.14 .
Thus, X 4 can be deleted. Go back to step 1.
Step 1:
The new original model is
Y 0 1 X 1 2 X 2 .
F1 144 corresponding to H 01 : 1 0 is the smallest partial F value.
Step 2b:
F1 144 F0 3.14 .
Thus,
Y 0 1 X 1 2 X 2 ,
is the selected model.

Step 1:
Select the variable most correlated Y, say X , based on the correlation

Y 0 i1 X i1
and go to step 2.
