Not only does the difficulty of computation in- crease in something like geometric proportion, but—and herein lies the justifi- cation for this statistical Occam’s Razor—the increase of the number of independ ...
The dilemma is sharpened if, as here, certain of the “independent” variables may be so highly intercorrelated in fact under normal conditions as to make their com- bined regression largely meaningless ...
