Example 55.1: Aerobic Fitness Prediction
Aerobic fitness (measured by the ability to consume
oxygen) is fit to some simple exercise tests.
The goal is to develop an equation to predict fitness
based on the exercise tests rather than on expensive
and cumbersome oxygen consumption measurements.
Three model-selection methods are used: forward
selection, backward selection, and MAXR selection.
The following statements produce
Output 55.1.1 through Output 55.1.5.
(Collinearity diagnostics for the full model are
shown in Figure 55.41.)
*-------------------Data on Physical Fitness-------------------*
| These measurements were made on men involved in a physical |
| fitness course at N.C.State Univ. The variables are Age |
| (years), Weight (kg), Oxygen intake rate (ml per kg body |
| weight per minute), time to run 1.5 miles (minutes), heart |
| rate while resting, heart rate while running (same time |
| Oxygen rate measured), and maximum heart rate recorded while |
| running. |
| ***Certain values of MaxPulse were changed for this analysis.|

No further improvement in R-Square is possible. |
|
Note that for all three of these methods,
RestPulse contributes least to the model.
In the case of forward selection, it is not added to the model.
In the case of backward selection, it is the
first variable to be removed from the model.
In the case of MAXR selection, RestPulse
is included only for the full model.
For the STEPWISE, BACKWARDS and FORWARD selection methods,
you can control the amount of detail displayed by using the DETAILS option.
For example, the following statements display only the selection summary
table for the FORWARD selection method.
proc reg data=fitness;
model Oxygen=Age Weight RunTime RunPulse RestPulse MaxPulse
/ selection=forward details=summary;
run;

Next, the RSQUARE model-selection method is used to
request R2 and Cp statistics for all possible
combinations of the six independent variables.
The following statements produce Output 55.1.5
model Oxygen=Age Weight RunTime RunPulse RestPulse MaxPulse
/ selection=rsquare cp;
title 'Physical fitness data: all models';
run;

The models in Output 55.1.5 are arranged first
by the number of variables in the model and
second by the magnitude of R2 for the model.
Before making a final decision about which model to
use, you would want to perform collinearity diagnostics.
Note that, since many different models have been fit and the choice
of a final model is based on R2, the statistics are biased
and the p-values for the parameter estimates are not valid.
