Abstract
This package contains programs to perform the following standard types of regression analyses: (a) full regression, (b) forward selection, and (c) backward elimination. The special feature of the package is a program for determining the optimum relative test lengths so as to maximize the multiple correlation for a fixed total testing time using the algorithm developed by Woodbury and Novick (1967).
