R2, No Constant

R2 is the coefficient of determination. This statistic represents the proportion of error for which the regression accounts.

You can use many methods to calculate R2. Predictor uses the equation:

Formula for R2 for regression without a constant

R2 can be extremely large in cases when the regression constant is omitted, even when the correlation between Y and X is weak. Because it can be meaningless, many applications do not mention this statistic. Predictor provides this statistic but it is not used for stepwise regression when there is no regression constant.
