| Description: | A linear regression model was adjusted with data from the Human Development Report 1998. The purpose was to predict Life Expectancy at Birth as a function of an indicator of education, the Combined First, Second and Third Level Gross Enrolment Ratio, and an indicator of monetary or buying power, the Real GDP per capita in dollars. Results show that the relative importance of the education indicator is practically three times the importance of the buying power indicator. The study also shows the usefulness of the multiple regression approach as a tool for research in Social Sciences. |
