Dear Michael, You can use geom_smooth directly.
ggplot(pred, aes(x = Age, y = Better)) + geom_smooth(method = "glm", family = binomial) Best regards, Thierry ir.

Here is a simple example of the 'base' plot I'd like to transform: data(Arthritis, package="vcdExtra") Arthritis$Better <- as.numeric(Arthritis$Improved > "None") arth.logistic <- glm(Better ~ Age, data=Arthritis, family=binomial) # get fitted values on the logit scale pred <- data.frame(Arthritis, predict(arth.logistic, se.fit=TRUE)) library(ggplot2) library(scales) # plot on logit scale gg <- ggplot(pred, aes(x=Age, y=fit)) + geom_line(size = 2) + theme_bw() + geom_ribbon(aes(ymin = fit - 1.96 * se.fit, ymax = fit + 1.96 * se.fit,), alpha = 0.2, color = "transparent") + labs(x = "Age", y = "Log odds (Better)") gg Things I've tried that don't work: > gg + coord_trans(ytrans="logis") Error in get(as.character(FUN), mode = "function", envir = envir) : object 'logis_trans' of mode 'function' was not found > > gg + coord_trans(ytrans=probability_trans("logis")) Error in if (zero_range(range)) { : missing value where TRUE/FALSE needed In addition: Warning message: In qfun(x, ...) : NaNs produced > Doing what I want "manually": # doing it manually pred2 <- within(pred, { prob <- plogis(fit) lower <- plogis(fit - 1.96 * se.fit) upper <- plogis(fit + 1.96 * se.fit) }) gg2 <- ggplot(pred2, aes(x=Age, y=prob)) + geom_line(size = 2) + theme_bw() + geom_ribbon(aes(ymin = lower, ymax = upper), alpha = 0.2, color = "transparent") + labs(x = "Age", y = "Probability (Better)") gg2 -- Michael Friendly Email: friendly AT yorku DOT ca Professor, Psychology Dept. & Chair, Quantitative Methods York University Voice: 416 736-2100 x66249 Fax: 416 736-5814 4700 Keele Street Web: http://www.datavis.ca Toronto, ONT M3J 1P3 CANADA ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. * * * * * * * * * * * * * D I S C L A I M E R * * * * * * * * * * * * * Dit bericht en eventuele bijlagen geven enkel de visie van de schrijver weer en binden het INBO onder geen enkel beding, zolang dit bericht niet bevestigd is door een geldig ondertekend document.
