3 Transformations Log of We saw that residuals have a right-skewed distribution, and the relationship between and income is non-linear (exponential). In these situations a transformation applied to the response variable may be useful. In order to decide which transformation to use, we should examine the distribution of the response variable. min = 0 Q1 = mean = median = Q3 = max = The extremely right skewed distribution suggests that a log transformation may be useful. > summary() Min. 1st Qu. Median Mean 3rd Qu. Max > log(0) [1] -Inf Since there are some individuals who made 0 income (from salaries and wages) last year, we cannot take the log of their income, since log(0) is undefined. A commonly used trick is to add a very small number to all values, and then take the log. 0e+00 1e+05 2e+05 3e+05 4e+05 Statistics 101 (Mine Çetinkaya-Rundel) U7 - L3: Case study April 18, / 20 Statistics 101 (Mine Çetinkaya-Rundel) U7 - L3: Case study April 18, / 20 Logged distribution Logged relationships > _log = log( ) > hist() > hist(_log) > plot(_log ) > plot(_log ) e+00 2e+05 4e _log Log(income) vs. _log Log(income) vs. age _log Are there any interesting features in the distribution of the logged income? Statistics 101 (Mine Çetinkaya-Rundel) U7 - L3: Case study April 18, / 20 We still might want to do something about those 0 incomes, it doesn t make sense to model them with the rest of the data. Statistics 101 (Mine Çetinkaya-Rundel) U7 - L3: Case study April 18, / 20
4 Further subsetting the data Logged relationships - for those with any income > plot(acs_sub2$income_log acs_sub2$hrs_work) > plot(acs_sub2$income_log acs_sub2$age) People who work more than 0 hours per week but make 0 income in salaries and wages are different than others whose income is proportional to number of hours they work. So we have reason to omit these people from the analysis (and model their income differently based on other variables). > acs_sub2 = subset(acs_sub, > 0) > acs_sub2$income_log = log(acs_sub2$income) acs_sub2$income_log Log(income) vs. acs_sub2$income_log Log(income) vs. age acs_sub2$hrs_work acs_sub2$age Much better...
