Description
Summary:An introduction to the logit model & its use in modeling the relationships between a dichotomous dependent variable & a set of independent categorical variables, using examples from migration studies. The logit model is viewed as a special case of the loglinear approach. The model formulation, its solution, & the meaning of output information (goodness-of-fit, testing, residuals, & parameters) are illustrated. 6 Tables, 2 Figures, 1 Appendix, 8 References.
