Incorrect

The question was: If we use the Grip variable to predict the SIMS variable, how far, on average, would the predicted value be from the actual value?

Your Answer: .045463

Answer and explanation: Your answer is incorrect. The correct answer is 1.29474.
The Standard Error indicates how far off you would be, on average, if you were to use the independent variable to predict scores on the dependent variable. Therefore if we use the Grip variable to predict the SIMS variable, we see a standard error of 1.29474.
