what types of dependent variables may be used in a logistic regression
|
Dependent variable
Categorical Dichotomous Ex: Alive or dead, male or female, cured or not-cured |
|
Describe when the Kaplan-Meier method is used
|
Survival analysis
Probability of experiencing an event over time -Outcome is dichotomous -Patients followed over time until they experience an event Ex: alive or dead, experienced an event or not |
|
Logistic Regression
|
Use to predict the probably an event will occur using a logistic curve for categorical data
|
|
what types of independent variables may be used in a logistic regression
|
Independent variables
Any type |
|
Statistical Tests used to compare curves in Kaplan-Meier method
|
Wilcoxon rank-sum test
Mann-Whitney U test Logrank test Result in a p value |
|
what a correlation coefficient tells us?
|
direction of relationship
and strength of relationship |
|
Correlation Coefficient Strength Interpretation
0.00 - 0.20 0.20 - 0.40 0.40 - 0.60 0.60 - 0.80 0.80 - 1.00 |
Positive or negative
Coefficient Range Very Low Low Moderate High Moderate Very High |
|
Regression
|
concerned with using this relationship for prediction
|
|
Coefficient of Determination
|
squaring Pearson r,r2
-r2 tells us how much of the variation in the Y is accounted for by the X |
|
What is meant by r2 = (.882) = .774
|
77% of the variation of the DV is accounted for the IV.
|
|
True or false.Use the adjusted r2 value when looking at output.
|
true
|
|
Is it practically significant?
|
Look at the the adjusted r2 value
|
|
Is this model significant?
|
Look at the Sig. value
