Logistic regression with 2 categorical predictors
This all looks bogus to me; you've fit the data perfectly by fitting a saturated model - there are no residual degrees of freedom and (effectively) zero residual deviance. Things are clearly amiss because you have huge standard errors. You have 24 data points and fit a model with 23 coefficient plus the intercept; you just replaced your data with 24 new data points (the values in the Estimate column of the summary() output) I really wouldn't bother interpreting it any further.

Hi Thierry, The multiple comparisons ran just fine but there was a ridiculous amount of interaction combinations all of which were non-significant even though there was a highly significant interaction term. I decided to remove test as a variable to simplify the analysis and run separate single explanatory variable logistic regressions. I have included a result below which is still producing an outcome I cant explain. Namely, why am I getting such a significant result for the ANOVA but when I do the tukey tests nothing is significant?

Hi Andrew, Please keep the mailing list in cc. The estimates in mc are the differences of the parameter estimates
(betas)
between both levels. E.g. 5.LR -1.LR = -1.168 or 5.LR = 1.LR - 1.168 summary(mc) should give you the significance of those differences. That should work. If it doesn't, please provide more info: at least your code and the error message. A small reproducible example is better. confint(mc) gives the confidence intervals of the differences.

Dear Andrew,
anova() and summary() test different hypotheses. anova() tests is at
least
one level is different from the others. summary() tests if the
coefficient
is different from zero. Multiple comparison of different interaction levels is probably the most relevant in this case. The easiest way is to make a new variable. snapper2$inter <- with(snapper2, interaction(age, test)) model <- glm(cbind(prefer,avoid) ~ 0 + inter, data=snapper2, family=binomial) library(multcomp) mc <- glht(model, mcp(inter = "Tukey)) summary(mc) Best regards, ir.

I am using the glm approach and would like some advice on how or whether to perform contrasts to work out what levels of Factor1 (Age) and Factor
2
(Test) are significantly different from each other. I have not been able to clarify from my reading what is the appropriate approach to take when dealing with a significant interaction term. I am also not sure as to how one interprets a model when all the coefficients are non-significant but the chi-square ANOVA shows a highly significant interaction term. I have graphed up the data as dot plots and there is definitely evidence of changes in proportions in later ages. I want to provide evidence for when and for which tests there was a 'significant' change in behavior.
