Question about R-squared

Postby vahid1985 » Wed Aug 24, 2011 10:11 am

my estimated R-squared for an OLS model is 0.59 is it enough for accepting the estimated model?

There is no general answer to this question. One thing to look at is how your R-squared compares to work by others on the same topic with similar data.
