Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR) in Examining Educational Quality Differences in Urban and Rural Areas

Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR) is a statistical method designed to analyze relationships between variables that can vary spatially, or in other words, relationships that depend on geographical location. GWR addresses the limitations of classical regression models, which assume that relationships between variables are constant across the study area. In GWR, the relationship between independent and dependent variables is explored based on geographical location, allowing for the identification of more specific spatial variations in the data. The application of GWR in the field of education is highly relevant for examining differences in educational quality between urban and rural areas, where various social, economic, and infrastructure factors can affect educational outcomes differently in each location. ...
