Assumption Explanation
Independent observations Observations (data of different participants) should
be independent, basically meaning that the behavior
of one person does not influence the behavior of
another.
Dependent variable should be continuous. The dependent variable should be a continuous
measure (interval or ratio). If a dependent variable is
nominal or ordinal, it is not possible to use linear
regression.
Independent variable should be continuous or The independent variable(s) should be continuous or
dichotomous. dichotomous. A categorical predictor can be
changed into several dichotomous variables
(dummy’s).
Linear relationship between predictors and The relationship between an independent and
dependent variable. dependent variable should be described using a
straight line.
Absence of outliers (in X, Y and XY-space) Outliers should be absent from the data. Outliers
are observations very different from others.
Absence of multicollinearity Independent variables should not be strongly
correlated.
Homoscedasticity The residuals at each level of the independent
variable(s) have similar variances.
Normality distributed residuals Residuals are the differences between the values
predicted by the model and the values observed in
the data om which the model is based. These
differences should be normally distributed.
