Get Fitted Values of Linear Regression Model in R (Example Code)

This tutorial demonstrates how to extract the fitted values of a linear regression model in the R programming language.

Example Data

data(iris)                                  # Example data
head(iris)
#   Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species

iris_model <- lm(Sepal.Length ~ ., iris)    # Calculating linear regression model
summary(iris_model)                         # Summary statistics of linear regression

Example: Returning Fitted Values of Linear Regression Model

iris_model_fitted <- fitted(iris_model)     # Extract fitted values
head(iris_model_fitted)                     # Print head of fitted values
#        1        2        3        4        5        6 
# 5.004788 4.756844 4.773097 4.889357 5.054377 5.388886
