Which statistical test is best for this scenario? Sports rehabilitation specialists and physical therapists were interested in research on patient compliance with rehabilitation plans. Each patient was scored on compliance on a scale (having validity and reliability) from 0–100 (as in percentage of compliance). The researchers collected information from patients in terms of their level of support, the severity of their injury, time frame for return to sports, and motivation to play sports again. These four different variables were collected using all types of data, nominal, ordinal, and scale data. The research question was: Can these variables predict the likelihood that patients will comply with rehabilitation plans?
The appropriate statistical test best for this scenario is the Multiple Linear Regression Model.
Can these variables predict the likelihood that patients will comply with rehabilitation plans?
Yes, these variables can predict the likelihood that patients will comply with rehabilitation plans with the independent variables as the level of support, the severity of the injury, time frame for a return to sports, and motivation to play sports again & the dependent variable is patient compliance with rehabilitation plans.
