This is the fourth session of the Statistical Analysis in R (2022 Fall pilot) series, developed through collaboration with UVA Health’s Health Sciences Library.
This session will explore logistic regression models, useful when the outcome variable is not a continuous variable, but rather is binary. Learners will connect these models to linear regressions they are familiar with and will spend much of their time making sure they understand the interpretation of the output.
