Specifically, R < sup > 2 </ sup > is an element of and represents the proportion of variability in Y < sub > i </ sub > that may be attributed to some linear combination of the regressors ( explanatory variables ) in X.

An interior value such as R < sup > 2 </ sup > = 0. 7 may be interpreted as follows: " Approximately seventy percent of the variation in the response variable can be explained by the explanatory variable.

The intuitive reason that using an additional explanatory variable cannot lower the R < sup > 2 </ sup > is this: Minimizing is equivalent to maximizing R < sup > 2 </ sup >.

Adjusted R < sup > 2 </ sup > ( often written as and pronounced " R bar squared ") is a modification due to Theil of R < sup > 2 </ sup > that adjusts for the number of explanatory terms in a model.
