No, you are using the unstandardized intercept but the standardized regression coefficients. And because B may bias the weights for A and C, you need to run the regression again without B. The coefficients for Aand C will likely change. Then use the unstandardized coefficients for the regression equation.

Subject: RE: Regresssion Plot in SPSS
Hello Paul,
Yes, I agree. Given the fact that now I only have two paramters left (=being significant), is this the correct equation (keeping in mind the table below)?
Y = 4.195 - 0.319 * A - 0.442 * C + e
What would be e in this case? I have standard erros for each parameter...
Kind Regards,
Karl
