Dear all, I am currently learning to run logistic regression models with R. Would someone tell me what this exactly means: Estimated scale (compare to 1 ) 1.746724 If the value is higher or lower than 1, what should I do? The complete results of the model were as follows: Generalized linear mixed model fit using Laplace Formula: success ~ diffca + (1 | partner1) + (1 | partner2) + (1 | target) Data: cascoresept08.df Family: binomial(logit link) AIC BIC logLik deviance 105.8 121.8 -47.89 95.79 Random effects: Groups Name Variance Std.Dev. partner1 (Intercept) 5.0000e-10 2.2361e-05 partner2 (Intercept) 5.0000e-10 2.2361e-05 target (Intercept) 1.0461e+00 1.0228e+00 number of obs: 182, groups: partner1, 19; partner2, 19; target, 13 Estimated scale (compare to 1 ) 1.746724 Fixed effects: Estimate Std. Error z value Pr(>|z|) (Intercept) -4.5053 0.9174 -4.911 9.06e-07 *** diffca 0.7631 0.1130 6.756 1.42e-11 *** I thank you in advance! Annie
Good afternoon I have what I hope is a simple logistic regression issue. I started with 44 independent variables and then used the drop1, test="chisq" to reduce the list to 8 significant independent variables. drop1(sep22lr, test="Chisq") and wound up with this model: Model: MIN_Mstocked ~ ORG_CODE + BECLBL08 + PEM_SScat + SOIL_NUTR + cSEEDSRCE_SW + cMSP + ceFFP + cEXT_Cold 4 of the remaining variables are categorical and 4 are continuous. However, when I run a glm and then a summary on the glm - some of the categorical data is missing from the output. The PEM_SScat is missing only one variable ... the BECLBL08 is missing several variables ... the ORG_CODE is missing 4 .. and the SOIL_NUTR is missing 1 variable. It seems arbitrary to the number of variables missing. Is there something wrong with my syntax in calling the logistic model? Am I not understanding the inputs correctly? Any help would be appreciated. Darin Brooks Geomatics/GIS/Remote Sensing Coordinator Kim Forest Management Ltd.
