What assumptions for linear regression make you think you have a problem?

What do people in your area usually do?

The "rank" transformation, which is what most people think of as

"nonparametric", is not very congenial for multiple variables, whether

you talk of the DV or the IV. 

If the problem is unequal intervals/ unequal variances, conventional

transformations (like taking logs) should be considered.

So, what is the actual problem?

Subject: Non-Parametric Multivariate Testing

 

Hello all,

I have some trouble finding the right test/model to see if there is a
relation between some explanatory variables with one dependent variable.

I already considered using Linear Regression and Logistic Regression. As my
data does not meet all the assumptions for the Linear Regression and as the
dependend variable is not binary, both of the Linear Regression and Logistic
regression aren't optional.

So my Question is: What Non-Parametric test for Multivariate testing can I
use? Or is there a way so that I can still use the Linear Regression?

Gr Betty
