A case for Bayesian 4: audience-led readings

Each session in this series will consider a different reading presenting a case for Bayesian. We invite participants to nominate and vote on articles to be read and presented in each session. Participants may suggest their own article or choose from the list provided.

The Meaning of Logistic Regression: Probing Predictions

Logistic regression provides a great introduction to generalized linear models (GLMs); it is in fact a GLM with a binomial sampling model, so is sometimes referred to as binomial regression. We will explore both traditional (Frequentist) as well as Bayesian approaches to modelling how a binary response (also referred to as a dependent variable or an outcome) may relate to several explanatory variables (also known as independent variables or predictors).

The Meaning of Logistic Regression: Meaning in the Model

'Stat-a-along' sessions are designed so that you can replay the session slowly, whilst following similar steps with your own data. Intended audience: Those with no experience in regression, wishing to understand the model from the outset. Those with some practical experience running these models, wishing to go to the next level, and understand the meaning of estimates.
