: You wish to fit a model to a “forced choice” binary dependent variable measuring political party preference (if you had to pick a political party, which would you select: Democratic or Republican?), and examine the relationship of parental political attitudes with the preference of the respondents. Based on the study design, View
: You are interested in estimating the relationship between gender (the IV) and a binary indicator of ever having experienced a major depressive disorder (the DV), where both variables were collected from a large national sample that involved area cluster sampling. You also wish to estimate between-cluster variance in the probability of having experienced a major depressive disorder, and explain this variance with the fixed effects of cluster-level covariates. View
: After publishing a research paper describing the results from the model fitted for Question #3, you are contacted by 20 other large hospitals, and they wish to contribute to the estimation of a model for predicting birth weight. The team agrees that estimation of the variance in expected birth weight between hospitals and explanation of that variance with hospital-level covariates is a key objective. What type of model would you fit? View
: You are interested in predicting the probability that an NCAA men’s basketball team wins their first round game in the annual NCAA men’s basketball tournament, where potential predictors of the binary indicator of winning the first game include a variety of team-level variables measured for each of the 64 teams competing in the first round. There is only one observation per team, and the dependent variable is a binary indicator (1, 0) of whether the team won their first round game. View
: What model should we use when our target outcome, or dependent variable is binary, or only has two outputs, 0 and 1? View
: What most likely happened to our R-Squared value when we added the third predictor LSTAT to our initial model? View
: Which values for DMDEDUC2x and RIAGENDRx are represented in our intercept, or what is our reference level? View
: What type of model should we use when our target outcome, or dependent variable, is continuous? View
: Are the predictors for this model statistically significant, yes or no? (Hint: What are their p-values?) View
