Applied Logistic Regression by David W Hosmer

Applied Logistic Regression by David W Hosmer

Since the late 1960s the logistic regression (LR) model has become the standard method for regression analysis of dichotomous data in many fields, especially in the health sciences. This text offers an introduction to the LR model and examines its use in methods for modelling.

"..the revised text continues to provide a focused introduction to the logistic regression model and its use in methods for modelling..." (Short Book Reviews, Vol. 21, No. 2, August 2001) "In this revised and updated edition of the popular test, the authors incorporate theoretical and computing advances from the last decade." (Journal of the American Statistical Association, September 2001) "...an excellent book that balances many objectives well... All statistical practitioners...can benefit from this book...Applied Logistic Regression is an ideal choice." (Technometrics, February 2002) "...it remains an extremely valuable text for everyone working or teaching in fields like epidemiology..." (Statistics in Medicine, No.21, 2002) "...The book is a classic, extremely well written, and it includes a variety of software packages and real examples..." (The Statistician, Vol. 51, No.2, 2002)
