Example 8.14: generating standardized regression coefficients. Standardized (or beta) coefficients from a linear regression model are the parameter estimates obtained when the predictors and outcomes have been standardized to have variance = 1. Alternatively, the regression model can be fit and then standardized post-hoc based on the appropriate standard deviations.

Beta shows the sensitivity of a fundâs, securityâs, or portfolioâs performance in relation to the market as a whole. Standard deviation measures the volatility or risk inherent to stocks and financial instruments.
