Abstract

Nonlinear statistical models, of which logistic regression is one example, are often used in applied demographic analysis as well as in many other social sciences. Presentation of the results of such models can be enhanced by the calculation of predicted probabilities, or expected values of the phenomenon of interest, yet such calculations can often be rather time-consuming. This paper describes the use of a computer program, INLOGIT, which can help the applied researcher interpret and display the results of a logistic regression model.
