a Logistic Regression Model Was Estimated in Order

Question 278

Multiple Choice

SCENARIO 13-18
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 and whether the TOEFL criterion is at least 90 (Toefl90 = 1 if yes, 0 otherwise.) The dependent variable, Y, is school type (Type = 1 if private and 0 otherwise) .There are 80 universities in the sample.
The PHStat output is given below:
Binary Logistic Regression  Predictor  Coefficients  SE Coef Zp-Value  Intercept 3.95941.67412.36500.0180 SAT 0.00280.00112.54590.0109 Toefl90:1 0.19280.58270.33090.7407 Deviance 101.9826\begin{array}{l}\begin{array} { l r r r r } \hline { \text { Predictor } } & \text { Coefficients } & \text { SE Coef } &{ Z } & p \text {-Value } \\\hline \text { Intercept } & - 3.9594 & 1.6741 & - 2.3650 & 0.0180 \\\text { SAT } & 0.0028 & 0.0011 & 2.5459 & 0.0109 \\\text { Toefl90:1 } & 0.1928 & 0.5827 & 0.3309 & 0.7407\\\text { Deviance } & 101.9826\\\end{array}\\\end{array}
-Referring to SCENARIO 13-18, which of the following is the correct interpretation for theToefl90 slope coefficient?


A) Holding constant the effect of SAT, the estimated mean value of school type is 0.1928 higher when the school has a TOEFL criterion that is at least 90.
B) Holding constant the effect of SAT, the estimated school type increases by 0.1928 when the school has a TOEFL criterion that is at least 90.
C) Holding constant the effect of SAT, the estimated natural logarithm of the odds ratio of the school being a private school is 0.1928 higher for a school that has a TOEFL criterion that is at least 90 than one that does not.
D) Holding constant the effect of SAT, the estimated probability of the school being a private school is 0.1928 higher for a school that has a TOEFL criterion that is at least 90 than one that does not.
