Abstract

This article addresses the problem of confidence band construction for a standard multiple linear regression model. An “independence point” method of construction is developed which generalizes the method of Gafarian (1964) for a simple linear regression model to a multiple linear regression model. Wynn (1984) pioneered the approach of basing confidence bands for a polynomial regression on a set of nodes where the function estimates are independent, and this approach is exploited in this article. This method requires only critical points from t-distributions so that the confidence bands are easy to construct. Both one-sided and two-sided confidence bands can be constructed using this method. An illustration of the new method is provided, and comparisons are made with other procedures
