Thanks for your response. Do you mean that both the log-odds and odd ratio have the same meaning?
My question is that the log-odd estimate 0.3618 is it for group1 or group2? normally 1vs2, glm takes 2 as reference, in the group1 the IQ increase by 0.3618compared to group 2 What does the odd ratio 1.43359 is interpreted? in the group1 the IQ score increase by 1.43359 compared to group 2 On Mon, Jan 25, 2010 at 10:05 AM, Mohamed Lajnef <mohamed.laj...@inserm.fr> wrote: > Hi val, > > > Val a écrit : >> >> Hi all >> >> Assume I have a data set xx; >> >> Group: 1=group1 , 2=group2 >> >> IQ: 1= High, 0 =low >> >> fit <- glm(IQ ~group, data = xx, family = binomial()) >> >> summary(fit) >> >> Results >> >> Estimate Std.
