Interpreting the results of logistic regression can be tricky, even for people who are familiar with performing different kinds of statistical analyses. How do we then share these results with non-researchers in a way that makes sense?

Member Training: Explaining Logistic Regression Results to Non-Researchers

The scatterplot is a simple display of the relationship between two, or sometimes three, variables. You have a wide range of options for displaying a scatterplot. In particular, you can control the location, size, shape, and color of the points in your scatterplot.
Member Training: How to Avoid Common Graphical Mistakes
December 1st, 2019 by guest contributer
Good graphs are extremely powerful tools for communicating quantitative information clearly and accurately.
Unfortunately, many of the graphs we see today confuse, mislead, or deceive the reader.
These poor graphs result from two key limitations. One is a graph designer who isn’t familiar with the principles of effective graphs. The other is software with a poor choice of default settings.
R Graphics: Multiple Graphs and par(mfrow=(A,B))

Today we see how to set up multiple graphs on the same page. We use the syntax par(mfrow=(A,B)) (more…)
Member Training: Using Excel to Graph Predicted Values from Regression Models
May 1st, 2013 by Karen Grace-MartinGraphing predicted values from a regression model or means from an ANOVA makes interpretation of results much easier.
Every statistical software will graph predicted values for you. But the more complicated your model, the harder it can be to get the graph you want in the format you want.
Excel isn’t all that useful for estimating the statistics, but it has some very nice features that are useful for doing data analysis, one of which is graphing.
In this webinar, I will demonstrate how to calculate predicted means from a linear and a logistic regression model, then graph them. It will be particularly useful to you if you don’t have a very clear sense of where those predicted values come from.
Note: This training is an exclusive benefit to members of the Statistically Speaking Membership Program and part of the Stat’s Amore Trainings Series. Each Stat’s Amore Training is approximately 90 minutes long.
