In the regression model, we assume that the independent variables are random instead of fixed. Consider the problem of estimating the coverage function of a usual confidence interval for the unknown intercept parameter. In this paper, we consider a case in which the number of unknown parameters is s

β¦ Synopsis
The main goal of regression analysis (multiple, logistic, Cox) is to assess the relationship of one or more exposure variables to a response variable, in the presence of confounding and interaction. The confidence interval for the regression coefficient of the exposure variable, obtained through the use of a computer statistical package, quantify these relationships for models without interaction. Relationships between variables that present interactions are represented by two or more terms, and the corresponding confidence intervals can be calculated 'manually' from the covariance matrix. This paper suggests an easy procedure for obtaining confidence intervals from any statistical package. This procedure is applicable for modifying variables which are continuous as well as categorical.
