Standardized vs unstandardized regression coefficients. I am rusty on regressions, did not use them for about 4 years. Standardized vs unstandardized regression coefficient. The standardized residual is the residual divided by its standard deviation.
It follows from these properties that we can calculate the standardized regression coefficients when the unstandardized coefficients are know. Basics of stata this handout is intended as an introduction to stata. Extract standardized residuals from a linear model description. The normal or unstandardized residuals described above are measured in the same units as the outcome variable and so are difficult to interpret across different models. If many of the residuals fall outside the given range, then the distribution is not considered to be normal. If the dependent variable is censored than that is going to effect the residuals.
