[Feature Request]: Prediction interval from regressions #2582

Open wenyingyao opened 7 months ago

wenyingyao commented 7 months ago

Description

After estimating a regression model, allow the users to specify a set of values for the input variable, and produce the point prediction, the confidence interval and prediction interval for a given confidence level

Purpose

This is one of the key use of regression analysis but it is missing from JASP

Use-case

@wenyingyao To clarify. You can get those values graphically atm. But you want them presentet numerically in a table, correct?

wenyingyao commented 7 months ago

@tomtomme That is correct. This is one feature that minitab has, that allows user to specify a set of values for the input variables, and a confidence level, then produce a table of results including the point prediction, confidence interval, and prediction interval. I figure this should be very easy to add, but for students who don't know programming or algebra, it is difficult to calculate prediction error by themselves. Many thanks for the quick response! I'm changing to JASP for my MBA class for the first time, and students really like it. Other than the prediction interval feature, JASP is a perfect substitute of minitab.

This would be nice to have!

@wenyingyao I switched my classes to jasp in 2020, so I know the feeling. There will always be something missing :D - but thats okay since there are so many things to enjoy already compared to SPSS. Lets hope your request will be implemented soon, but as you can see, we have around 400 valid feature requests at the moment + some bugs to fix :D Really cool to see how many ideas people have to improve jasp :) So thx for this one!

That feature would be applicable to all the models in Regression. It is the main thing keeping me to use JASP in my class to teach forecasting.
