==Overview==
Model validation can be based on two types of data: data that was used in the construction of the model and data that was not used in the construction. Validation based on the first type usually involves analyzing the [[goodness of fit]] of the model or analyzing whether the [[Errors and residuals|residuals]] seem to be random (i.e. [[#Residual diagnostics|residual diagnostics]]). Validation based on the second type usually involves analyzing whether the model's [[Prediction interval|predictive performance]] deteriorates non-negligibly when applied to pertinent new data.
