Generalized Linear Modeling in SPSS - Continuing Education - CTW
ASA
Instructor(s): Weicai Zhong, SPSS Inc.
GENLIN covers a variety of exponential distributions to analyze different data-including normal, gamma, inverse Gaussian, Poisson, negative binomial, and binomial-and many types of link functions-including identity, complementary log-log, log, log complement, logit, negative binomial, negative log-log, odds power, probit, and power. In this workshop, we will introduce model details and show how to choose and fit a generalized linear model using examples of data in applied research. We will demonstrate assessing the fit of a model, comparing it against competing models, interpreting the parameters, and performing follow-up analysis, such as estimated marginal means or scoring. Examples will illustrate the use of GENLIN. Attendees are expected to have basic knowledge of statistical inference. Familiarity with classical linear modeling is desirable, but not required.
