Question

Following question is based on the following paragraph. Read following paragraph and answer five questions that follow.

A researcher carried out regression analysis. She wanted to predict Organization Commitment (OC) using Job Satisfaction (JS), Work Environment (WE), Leadership (L), and Employee Engagement (EE). On a sample of 100 respondents, she measured all the variables using psychological scales. JS and EE correlated 0.80; VIF for both of them is 7. She consulted a colleague who suggested to drop either JS or EE and indicated problem of imperfect measurement of variables. She dropped JS and carried out multiple regression. Overall model has F = 24 (p < .01) and R2 = 0.36.

What is percentage variance explained by IVs in OC ?

This question was previously asked in
MH SET 2026 Paper 1 Question Paper (25-Oct-2026)
The correct answer is

36%

The coefficient of determination R2 is the proportion of variance in the criterion (here Organization Commitment) that is explained jointly by the predictors in the model.

The passage reports R2 = 0.36 for the final model with WE, L and EE as predictors.

Converting the proportion to a percentage: 0.36 × 100 = 36%. So the three predictors together account for 36% of the variance in OC, leaving 64% unexplained.

Hence, the answer is 36%.
