Description: Logistic Regression : From Introductory to Advanced Concepts and Applications, Hardcover by Menard, Scott W., ISBN 1412974836, ISBN-13 9781412974837, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Logistic regression is a generalized linear model used for binomial regression for the purposes of predicting the probability of occurrence of an event by fitting data to a logistic curve. In this text, Menard (Sam Houston State U.) goes beyond his earlier monograph, Applied Logistic Regression Analysis (Sage, 2002), by offering more detailed discussion of technical details and practical applications. The text introduces logistic regression analysis from the perspectives of ordinary least squares linear regression analysis and log-linear analysis, deals with global model statistics, discusses interpretation of coefficients and inferential statistics for individual predictors in logistic regression, examines the diagnosis of and remedies for the problems in the dichotomous logistic regression model, details how path analysis can be applied in the logistic regression framework with categorical dependent and intervening variables as well as predictors, deals with logistic regression for polytomous dependent variables, discusses adjustments to the logistic regression model when data involve clustered or other dependent samples (including contextual dependencies), describes the use of logistic regression analysis for longitudinal data with few and many repeated measurements, examines multilevel change models and event history analysis using the proportional odds logistic regression model to model the relationship between categorical dependent variables and time dimensions, and briefly compares logistic regression to other methods of analysis such as probit models and discriminant analysis. A background in basic statistics through ordinary least squares regression is the minimal prerequisite, but background in multiple regression analysis and log-linear analysis will aid in understanding.
