Multivariate Regression of Dummy Variates under Normality Assumptions
Abstract The most frequently used practical regression model is that in which it is supposed that the dependent variate is normal for given values of the independent variate. In this paper it is pointed out that another regression model of wide applicability may be furnished by the contrary assumption—that the independent variate is normal for given values of the dependent variate. The particular case where the dependent variate is a vector of dummy variables is explored in detail.
