In the previous two chapters, we focused on issues regarding testing assumptions of logistic regression logistic regression analysis, such as how to create interaction variables and logistic regression diagnostics r how to interpret the results of our logistic model. In order for our analysis to be valid, diagnostics for logistic regression our model has to satisfy the assumptions of logistic regression. When the assumptions of logistic regression analysis are not met, we may have problems, such as biased coefficient

estimates or very large standard errors for the logistic regression coefficients, and these problems may lead to invalid statistical inferences. Therefore, before we can use our model to make any statistical inference, we need to check that our model fits sufficiently well and check for influential observations that have impact on the estimates of the coefficients. In goodness of fit logistic regression this chapter, we are going to focus on how to assess model fit, how to diagnose potential problems in our model and how to identify observations that have significant impact on model fit or parameter estimates. Let's begin with a review of the assumptions of logistic regression. The true conditional probabilities are a logistic function of the independent variables. No important variables are omitted. No extraneous variables are included. The independent variables are measured without error. The observations are independent. The independent variables are not linear combinations of each other. In this chapter, we are going to continue to use the apilog dataset. use http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/Stata/webbooks/logistic/apilog, clear 3.1 Specification Error When we build a logistic regression model, we assume that the logit of the outcome variable is a linear combination of the independent variables. This involves two aspects, as we are dealing with the two sides of our logistic regression equation. First, consider the link function of the outcome variable on the left hand side of the equ

For logistic regression, I am having trouble finding resources that explain how to diagnose the logistic regression model fit. Digging up some course notes for GLM, it simply states that checking the residuals is not helpful for performing diagnosis for a logistic regression fit. Looking around the internet, there also seems to be various "diagnosis" procedures, such as checking the model deviance and performing chi-squared tests, but other sources state that this is inappropriate, and that you should perform a Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit test. Then I find other sources that state that this test may be highly dependent on the actual groupings and cut-off values (may not be reliable). So how should one diagnose the logistic regression fit? regression logistic share|improve this question edited Sep 20 '13 at 8:44 Gala 6,57421936 asked Dec 3 '12 at 23:15 ialm 68721119 1 Possible duplicate (or special case) of stats.stackexchange.com/questions/29271/… or stats.stackexchange.com/questions/44643/…, although neither of them have answers that will really solve it for you. –Peter Ellis Dec 4 '12 at 0:52 I recommend you read Scott Menard's mon

Sufficient, as well as necessary, conditions under which the omitted variable will not create asymptotically biased coefficient estimates for the included variables are derived. Conditional on the response variable, if the omitted explanatory and the included explanatory variable are independent, the bias will not occur. Bias will occur if the omitted relevant variable is independent with the included explanatory variable. The coefficient of the included variable plays an important role in the direction of the bias. open in overlay ∗I appreciate having financial support from the National Science Foundation under Grant SES-8006481.
