If the Tolerance value is greater than 0. 1 and the VIF value is less than 10, then it is considered that there are no symptoms of multicollinearity. All variables in this study have a Tolerance value > 0. 1 and a VIF value > 10, so it can be concluded that the following regression model does not find any multicollinearity problems. Multiple Linear Regression Test Table 5. Multiple Linear Regression Test Variables B (Coefficien.
