The general linear model and the [[generalized linear model]] (GLM)<ref name=":0">{{Cite book |last1=McCullagh |first1=P. |author1-link=Peter McCullagh |last2=Nelder |first2=J.

The main difference between the two approaches is that the general linear model strictly assumes that the [[Errors and residuals|residuals]] will follow a [[Conditional probability distribution|conditionally]] [[normal distribution]],<ref name=":1">{{cite report |last1=Cohen |first1=J. |last2=Cohen |first2=P. |last3=West |first3=S. G. |last4=Aiken |first4=L. S. |author4-link=Leona S. Aiken |date=2003 |title=Applied multiple regression/correlation analysis for the behavioral sciences}}</ref> while the GLM loosens this assumption and allows for a variety of other [[Distribution (mathematics)|distributions]] from the [[exponential family]] for the residuals.<ref name=":0"/> The general linear model is a special case of the GLM in which the distribution of the residuals follow a conditionally normal distribution.
