Chapter Chapter 9 in Regression, 2021, pp 555-621 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract In the previous chapter, we illustrated how to flexibly model and estimate the effect of a continuous covariate z on the response variable y without specifying a restrictive functional form of the effect f(z). We also showed how to extend the concepts for two continuous covariates $$z_1$$ z 1 and $$z_2$$ z 2 or for a location variable s. As shown in Chap. 3 through various examples, a linear effect was reasonable for a considerable number of the available covariates.
