Model a binary dependent response variable as a relationship between one or more explanatory variables by fitting a logistic regression model.
A binomial logistic regression models a binary dependent variable with two outcomes by one or more independent or predictor variables. If the binary outcomes in the dependent variable are labelled ‘0’ and ‘1’ then fitted and predicted values of a logistic model are the log-odds for the value labelled ‘1’. The log-odds can be converted to a probability by the logistic function with a probability 1 being “certainly belonging to ‘1’”.
In this module, if a dependent variable with more than two values is selected, then the values in the dependent variable will be revalued so that the first level represents a failure and the rest represent a success.
The module output is the summary output of a linear model created in R. More details on this output can be found in the R documentation for glm.
