logitor {mfx}R Documentation

Odds ratios for a logit regression.

Description

This function estimates a binary logistic regression model and calculates the corresponding odds ratios.

Usage

logitor(formula, data, robust = FALSE, clustervar1 = NULL, clustervar2 = NULL, 
        start = NULL, control = list())

Arguments

formula

an object of class “formula” (or one that can be coerced to that class).

data

the data frame containing these data. This argument must be used.

robust

if TRUE the function reports White/robust standard errors.

clustervar1

a character value naming the first cluster on which to adjust the standard errors.

clustervar2

a character value naming the second cluster on which to adjust the standard errors for two-way clustering.

start

starting values for the parameters in the glm model.

control

see glm.control.

Details

If both robust=TRUE and !is.null(clustervar1) the function overrides the robust command and computes clustered standard errors.

Value

oddsratio

a coefficient matrix with columns containing the estimates, associated standard errors, test statistics and p-values.

fit

the fitted glm object.

call

the matched call.

Examples

# simulate some data
set.seed(12345)
n = 1000
x = rnorm(n)

# binary outcome
y = ifelse(pnorm(1 + 0.5*x + rnorm(n))>0.5, 1, 0)

data = data.frame(y,x)
logitor(formula=y~x, data=data)
