Calculate Odds within Logistic Regression Model
A survey was conducted and asked: “Do you consider your health to be poor?” This was coded as 1 for “yes” and 0 for “no.” The effect of age (in years) and sex (1 = male, 0 = female) on the outcome was examined using logistic regression. The fitted logistic model is:
What are the odds of responding “yes” for a female subject who is 60 years old?
What is the estimated odds ratio corresponding to the age variable? Interpret this estimate.
Suppose that, based on the data from the survey, the odds of responding “yes” for males are 3.79% greater than the odds for females, adjusting for age. What is the value of ?
