Hi there, I hope someone can help me. I have a dataset of Concentration against Mortality, and I am trying to compare the use of Logit and Probit models using this data.
[snip snip snip] There are three ways you can get the inverse-link function 1. dig into the family object: binomial(link="probit")$linkinv 2. know that the probit link is the qnorm() (Normal quantile) function, and the inverse-probit is pnorm() (the Normal CDF). (Similarly, it seems that a lot of users don't know that plogis()/qlogis() similarly provide the logistic and logit functions ... 3. As David Winsemius suggests, use predict(...,type="response") (but options #1 and #2 are useful in providing flexibility).
