Understanding output of PROC GAM

Krishnan — Wed, 20 May 2009 15:49:28 GMT

Dear friends,

I am using Proc GAM on a panel dataset (with 3,00,000 obs) for exploratory data analysis. I wanted to understand what is effect of an independent variable on the dependent variable. After running the Proc GAM code, I got a graphical output with the independent variable on x-axis and the effect on y-axis. How do I interpret this output?
Code used:
ODS HTML;
ODS GRAPHICS ON;

PROC GAM DATA = TMP1.DATASET PLOTS(CLM);
MODEL Y = SPLINE (X);
OUTPUT OUT=ESTIMATE P RESIDUAL UCLM LCLM;
RUN;

ODS GRAPHICS OFF;
ODS HTML CLOSE;

U can e-mail me,if more information is required. This is an urgent request.

Thanks,
