Greetings, I am using both the lrm() {Design} and glm( , family=binomial()) to perform a a logisitic regression in R. Apart from the typical summary() methods, what other methods of diagnosing logistic regression models does R provide? i.e. plotting an 'lm' object, etc. Secondly, is there any facility to calculate the R^{2)_{L} as suggested by Menard in "Applied Logistic Regression Analysis" (2002) ? Any thought would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, -- Dylan Beaudette Soils and Biogeochemistry Graduate Group University of California at Davis 530.754.7341

An omnibus test is in residuals.lrm as is partial residual plots.> > Secondly, is there any facility to calculate the R^{2)_{L} as suggested by > Menard in "Applied Logistic Regression Analysis" (2002) ?Don't know that paper but lrm has various indexes including Nagelkerke-Maddala R^2.
