residPlot {s20x}R Documentation

Fitted values versus residuals plot

Description

Plots a scatter plot for the variables of the residuals and fitted values from the linear model, lmfit. A lowess smooth line for the underlying trend, as well as one standard deviation error bounds for the scatter about this trend, are added to this scatter plot. A test for a quadratic relationship between the residuals and the fitted values is also computed.

Usage

residPlot(lmfit,f=0.5)

Arguments

lmfit an lm object, i.e. the output from "lm()".
f the smoother span. This gives the proportion of points in the plot which influence the smooth at each value. Larger values give more smoothness.

Value

Returns the plot.
