Answer: B - A correlation coefficient is not a component of a multiple regression model.
Key Takeaway: Multiple regression analysis is used to study the effect of two or more independent (or explanatory) variables on the dependent variable. A multiple regression model is comprised of slopes of trend lines (corresponding to the independent variables), random error terms, and an intercept. Correlation coefficients are not considered to be components of a multiple regression model.
