Criterion: Use of a contraceptive (as logical).
Values:
FALSE
vs.TRUE
(42.7% vs. 57.3%).
Details
The samples describe married women who were either not pregnant or do not know if they were pregnant at the time of the interview.
The problem consists in predicting a woman's current contraceptive method choice
(here: binarized cont.crit
)
based on her demographic and socio-economic characteristics.
We made the following enhancements to the original data for improved usability:
The criterion was binarized from a class attribute variable with three levels (
1=No-use
,2=Long-term
,3=Short-term
) , into a logical variable with two levels (TRUE
vs.FALSE
).
Other than that, the data remains consistent with the original dataset.
