Select the residual plots to generate. This button is inactive unless you selected a linear model to fit from the Analysis sub-dialog box.
- Residuals for Plots
- Specify the type of residuals to display on the residual plots. For more information, go to Which types of residuals are included in Minitab?.
- Regular: Use regular residuals in residual plots.
- Standardized: Use standardized residuals in residual plots.
- Deleted: Use deleted residuals in residual plots.
- To use the ln residuals for a linear model for the standard deviation, go to the Options sub-dialog and specify to use Use ln(s) for all standard deviation
output.
- Residual Plots
- Use residual plots to examine whether your model meets the assumptions of the analysis. For more information, go to Residual plots in Minitab
- Individual plots: Select the residual plots that you want to display.
- Histogram
- Display a histogram of the residuals.
- Normal plot
- Display a normal plot of the residuals.
- Residuals versus fits
- Display a plot of the residuals versus the fitted values.
- Residuals versus order
- Display a plot of the residuals versus the order of the data.
- Four in one: Display all four residual plots together in one graph.
- Residuals versus variables
- Enter one or more variables to plot versus the residuals. You can plot the following types of variables:
- Variables that are already in the current model.
- Important variables that are not in the current model, to determine whether they are related to the response.
