The Formula Explained
The logistic regression formula used is:
Glossary of Variables
- Predictor 1 (X1): Independent variable 1.
- Predictor 2 (X2): Independent variable 2.
- Constant (β0): Intercept of the regression line.
- Probability (P): Likelihood of the event occurring.
- Odds Ratio: The odds of the event occurring to not occurring.
How It Works: A Step-by-Step Example
Suppose you have Predictor 1 as 0.5, Predictor 2 as 1.2, and a constant of -1.5. Using the formula, you calculate the probability and odds ratio to understand the likelihood of the event.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is logistic regression?
Logistic regression is a statistical method for predicting binary outcomes from data.
How is the probability calculated?
Probability is calculated using the logistic function, which maps any real-valued number to a value between 0 and 1.
What is odds ratio?
The odds ratio is a measure of association between an exposure and an outcome.
Can logistic regression handle multiple predictors?
Yes, logistic regression can handle multiple predictors to assess their impact on the binary outcome.
What are the limitations of logistic regression?
Logistic regression assumes a linear relationship between the logit of the outcome and the predictors.
