Ordinary linear regression is used a lot, and is
taught in every intro stat class. Logistic regression
is rarely taught or even mentioned in intro stats,
but mostly because of inertia.
We now have the computing power and
software to implement logistic regression.

π = Proportion of “Success”
In ordinary regression the model predicts the
mean Y for any combination of predictors.

Goal of logistic regression: Predict the “true”
proportion of success, π, at any value of the
predictor.

Note: Odds ratio (OR) is similar to relative risk (RR).

OR = RR*

So when p is small, OR ≈ RR.

X is replaced by X + 1:
odds = eb0+b1X

odds = eb0+b1( X+1)
So the ratio is
eb0+b1( X+1)

= eb0+b1( X+1)-(b0+b1X )

Binary Logistic Regression
Chi-Square Test for
2-way table

Response variable: Y = Success/Failure
Predictor variable: X = Group #1 / Group #2
• Method #1: Binary logistic regression
• Method #2: Z- test, compare two proportions
• Method #3: Chi-square test for 2-way table
All three “tests” are essentially equivalent, but the
logistic regression approach allows us to mix other
categorical and quantitative predictors in the model.

Putting Data
Odds using data from 6 feet = 0.953
Odds using data from 5 feet = 1.298
 Odds ratio (6 ft to 5 ft) = 0.953/1.298 = 0.73
The odds of making a putt from 6 feet are
73% of the odds of making from 5 feet.

Odds Ratios for Putts

From samples at each distance:
4 to 3 feet 5 to 4 feet 6 to 5 feet 7 to 6 feet

From fitted logistic:
In a logistic model, the odds ratio is constant when
changing the predictor by one.

Example: 2012 vs 2014 congressional elections
How does %vote won by Obama relate to a
Democrat winning a House seat?
See the script elections 12, 14.R

Example: 2012 vs 2014 congressional elections
How does %vote won by Obama relate to a
Democrat winning a House seat?
In 2012 a Democrat had a decent chance even
if Obama got only 50% of the vote in the
district. In 2014 that was less true.

In 2012 a Democrat had a decent chance even if Obama
got only 50% of the vote in the district. In 2014 that was
less true.

There is an easy way to graph logistic curves in R.

R Logistic Output

Two forms of logistic data
1. Response variable Y = Success/Failure or 1/0: “long
form” in which each case is a row in a spreadsheet
(e.g., Putts1 has 587 cases). This is often called
“binary response” or “Bernoulli” logistic regression.
2. Response variable Y = Number of Successes for a
group of data with a common X value: “short form”
(e.g., Putts2 has 5 cases – putts of 3 ft, 4 ft, … 7 ft).
This is often called “Binomial counts” logistic
regression.
