TABLE 14-18 A logistic regression model was estimated in order to predict the probability that a randomly chosen university or college would be a private university using information on mean total Scholastic Aptitude Test score (SAT) at the university or college, the room and board expense measured in thousands of dollars (Room/Brd), and whether the TOEFL criterion is at least 550 (Toefl550 = 1 if yes, 0 otherwise.) The dependent variable, Y, is school type (Type = 1 if private and 0 otherwise).

TABLE 14-19 The marketing manager for a nationally franchised lawn service company would like to study the characteristics that differentiate home owners who do and do not have a lawn service. A random sample of 30 home owners located in a suburban area near a large city was selected; 15 did not have a lawn service (code 0) and 15 had a lawn service (code 1). Additional information available concerning these 30 home owners includes family income (Income, in thousands of dollars), lawn size (Lawn Size, in thousands of square feet), attitude toward outdoor recreational activities (Atitude 0 = unfavorable, 1 = favorable), number of teenagers in the household (Teenager), and age of the head of the household (Age). The Minitab output is given below: Logistic Regression Table Odds 95\% CI Predictor Coef SE Coef Z P Ratio Lower Upper Constant -70.49 47.22 -1.49 0.135 Income 0.2868 0.1523 1.88 0.060 1.33 0.99 1.80 LawnSiz 1.0647 0.7472 1.42 0.154 2.90 0.67 12.54 Attitude -12.744 9.455 -1.35 0.178 0.00 0.00 326.06 Teenager -0.200 1.061 -0.19 0.850 0.82 0.10 6.56 Age 1.0792 0.8783 1.23 0.219 2.94 0.53 16.45 Log-Likelihood =4.890= - 4.890 Test that all slopes are zero: G=31.808,DF=5,p\mathrm { G } = 31.808 , \mathrm { DF } = 5 , p -value =0.000= 0.000 Goodness-of-Fit Tests Method Chi-Square DF Pearson 9.313 24 0.997 Deviance 9.780 24 0.995 Hosmer-Lemeshow 0.571 8 1.000 -Referring to Table 14-19, what is the p-value of the test statistic when testing whether the model is a good-fitting model?

TABLE 14-17 Given below are results from the regression analysis where the dependent variable is the number of weeks a worker is unemployed due to a layoff (Unemploy) and the independent variables are the age of the worker (Age), the number of years of education received (Edu), the number of years at the previous job (Job Yr), a dummy variable for marital status (Married: 1 = married, 0 = otherwise), a dummy variable for head of household (Head: 1 = yes, 0 = no) and a dummy variable for management position (Manager: 1 = yes, 0 = no). We shall call this Model 1. The coefficients of partial determination ( 2 Yj. (Allvariables except j j ) ) of each of the 6 predictors are, respectively, 0.2807, 0.0386, 0.0317, 0.0141, 0.0958, and 0.1201.
