Coefficients, OR and 95% CL
l.mod<-glm(menarche~age,binomial) you will get odds-ratios by exponentiating the coefficients of this model, so exp(coef(l.mod)) will do this job. You may notice that this will produce an "OR" for the intercept part as well - which is not interpretable. For the confidence intervals for this odds ratio you have to exponentiate the borders of the "standard" confidence intervals for the log-odds-ratios, exp(confint(l.mod)) hth. Luciano La Sala schrieb:
Dear R-users, After running a logistic regression, I need to calculate OR by exponentiating the coefficient, and then I need the 95% CL for the OR as well. For the following example (taken from P. Dalaagard's book), what would be the most straightforward method of getting what I need? Could anyone enlight me please? Thank you! Lucho
