› Regression--Normal vs Non-Normal

I've always used the assumption that to include x values in a regression model--either single or multiple (with continuous data) that the data had to be normal. Can you use non-normal data in your model if it's significant or do you have to convert first?

AQL means Acceptable Quality Level. It is the process quality level, in percentage defective, that the sampling plans will accept the vast majority of the time. There are a number of texts that describe the officially obsolete standard MIL-STD-105E. The best by far is Edward Schilling's book on acceptance sampling. You can get it from ASQ Quality Press (800) 248-1946.
