Using output out

deleted_user — Sun, 27 Sep 2009 22:06:04 GMT

I'm trying to use residuals-squared as a dependent variable from a simple model (model y = x1 x2). I'm doing a Breusch-Pagan/Godfrey LM test and so I need to set up the model-- residuals-squared = x1 x2.

Can someone help me use residuals as a variable?

You don't say what procedure you are using. The syntax is different for GLM versus REG. For GLM is would look something like the following:

Proc GLM;
model y = x1 x2;
output out=rdata r=resid_y;
run;

data step2;
set rdata;
sq_residual = resid_y * resid_y;
run;

A curious question: did you try using the SAS support http://support.sas.com/ website and its SEARCH facility, or possibly using Google advanced search with the parameter "site:sas.com" to limit the search to SAS.COM??
