Volume calculations were investigated using a growth curve rather than apolynomialregressionmodel.
From theCambridge English Corpus
This prediction was confirmed by thepolynomialregressionanalysis of case-marking mastery on the overall decision latencies.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Polynomialregressionanalysis was performed to evaluate the relation between right ventricular volumes and body surface area in the normal group.
From theCambridge English Corpus
This hypothesis can be tested by examining whether there is a significantly positive quadratic component in apolynomialregressionanalysis.
From theCambridge English Corpus
To test for deviations from density-independent exponential growth, we tested for deviation from linearity using second orderpolynomialregression.
From theCambridge English Corpus
In order to examine the inverted u-shaped relationship between case-marking mastery and processing speed, apolynomialregressionwas performed on the overall decision latencies for both groups combined.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Therefore, for least squares analysis, the computational and inferential problems ofpolynomialregression can be completely addressed using the techniques of multiple regression.

An advantage of traditionalpolynomialregressionis that the inferential framework of multiple regression can be used (this also holds when using other families of basis functions such as splines).
