Eliminating predictors
You technically still do not know which predictors are really required in the model. Again, you use the function stepAIC() from the add-on package MASS to exclude unnecessary predictors. The argument direction = "backward" starts the selection process with the extended.model and sequentially removes terms in an effort to lower the AIC. The argument trace = FALSE suppresses information to be printed during the running of the selection process. You summarize the final model, resulting in the minimum AIC value, by the function summary().

- Perform backward selection of predictors on the
extended.modelobject by using the functionstepAIC(). Assign the result to an object namedfinal.model. - Summarize the
final.modelobject by using the functionsummary().
