Statistics calculated by the i option are stored in variables named presid, hat, stpresid, etc. Here is a listing of the
additional diagnostic variables created.
logindex = Logit; Index value
sepred = Standard error of index
pred = Probability of success (1)
mpred = Prob of covariate pattern success
presid  = Pearson Residual

stpresid = Standardized Pearson Residual
hat      =  Hat matrix diagonal

dev      =  Deviance

cook     =  Cookzs distance

deltad   =  Change in Deviance

deltax   =  Change in Pearson chi-square

deltab = Difference in coefficient due to
deletion of observation and others

The formulas for each are given below, although the interested reader is directed to Hosmer and Lemeshow (1989) for a
detailed discussion. Also see Hamilton (1992).

Stored in presid is Tj = (г/j — mjpredj)/ʌ/mhpredj (1 — pre⅛) where j represents the observation number, r∏j the number
of observations sharing J’s covariate pattern, and
yj the number of positive responses within the covariate pattern of which j
is a member. predj is the predicted probability of a positive outcome. Note that this residual is the same for all observations
sharing the same covariate pattern.

mpred contains mjpredj, which is the expected number of positive responses for observations sharing J’s covariate pattern.
hat contains
hj = (sepred^)(mjpredj)(l — predj), where sepred represents the standard error of index.

stpresid contains rsj = Tj∕-∕1 — hj.

dev contains                   _______________________________________________________

⅛ = ±'A(¾ In (-*±-τ) + (,,,j - 1,j) l,ɪ f J⅛ - ¾) ɔi
j y V7
mjpredj ) v j 2 mj(l - predj) ) )

The sign of the deviance residual is identical to the sign of (yj — mjpredj). For observations having only a single covariate
pattern
dj = y∕-2 lnpre⅛ for observed positive responses and dj = —ʌ/-2 ln(l — pre⅛) for observed negative responses.

cook contains r2hj∕(l — hj).

deltax contains r2∕(q- hj) = r%j.

deltad contains d^ + ((r2hj)∕(l — hj)).

deltab contains r2hj∕(l — hj)2.

The Pearson χ2 statistic is rj and the deviance statistic is V<∕^.

Hosmer and Lemeshow suggest the following four diagnostic plots:

. gr deltax pred, xlab ylab yline(4)

. gr deltad pred, xlab ylab yline(4)

. gr deltab pred, xlab ylab yline(l)

. gr deltax pred=deltab, xlab ylab yline(4)

Observations or covariate patterns whose values exceed yline are considered significantly influential.

An Example

of the output.
