Description of the Project: In a health study to investigate an epidemic outbreak of disease (spread by mosquitoes), individuals were randomly sampled within two sectors in a city to determine if the person had the disease under study. The response variable y was coded 1 if an individual had the disease, and 0 if not. The three predictor variables included in this study were:
NOTE: It is expected that the upper socioeconomic class will have the lowest disease rate among the three classes. Hence, it is chosen as the reference class (i.e. The class for which indicator variables x2 and x3 are coded 0) |
