Proc Reg and Proc score

[SandyWindsor]

I have created a linear regression model using Proc Reg output my parameters to use in Proc Score and produced the predicted values in my output table. However when I used Proc Score on data (including the data used to build the model) the values for the data I used to build the model are different in Proc Score to the output predicted values in Proc Reg. Can anyone explain this?

(EG 7.1)

Target	P_Reg	P_Score
88806	89207.13	89300.56
89051	89286.64	89421.16
89397	89364.52	89541.75
90354	90080.69	90134.00
90984	90552.01	90541.30
91283	90979.03	90948.60

You'd need to show us your code, and show us a reasonable portion of your data (as a SAS data step, see: https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Communities-Library/How-to-create-a-data-step-version-of-your-dat...)

They should be the same, so my assumption at this point would be user error.

Here's an example of how it should work.

data Fitness;
   input Age Weight Oxygen RunTime RestPulse RunPulse @@;
   datalines;
44 89.47  44.609 11.37 62 178     40 75.07  45.313 10.07 62 185
44 85.84  54.297  8.65 45 156     42 68.15  59.571  8.17 40 166
38 89.02  49.874  9.22 55 178     47 77.45  44.811 11.63 58 176
40 75.98  45.681 11.95 70 176     43 81.19  49.091 10.85 64 162
44 81.42  39.442 13.08 63 174     38 81.87  60.055  8.63 48 170
44 73.03  50.541 10.13 45 168     45 87.66  37.388 14.03 56 186
;

proc reg data=Fitness outest=RegOut;
   OxyHat: model Oxygen=Age Weight RunTime RunPulse RestPulse;
   output out=p1 p= r=;
   title 'Regression Scoring Example';
run;quit;

proc print data=RegOut;
   title2 'OUTEST= Data Set from PROC REG';
run;

proc score data=Fitness score=RegOut out=P2 type=parms;
   var Age Weight RunTime RunPulse RestPulse;

run;

proc print data=P2;
   title2 'Predicted Scores for Regression';
run;


data check;
merge p1 (keep=oxygen) P2(keep = oxygen rename=oxygen=O2) ;

diff= round(oxygen-o2, 0.0001);
run;

title 'Check of differences, should be 0';
proc print data=check;
run;

Thanks upon checking the file which was imported from excel had become corrupted ,so some of the values were incorrect.

Item is now resolved
