What is LINLOGIT?
LINLOGIT is a computer program that will calculate the y-intercept
and slope of a logistic function. It does this by using a maximum likelihood algorithm
that was published in Haberman, S. J. (1978) Analysis of Qulaitative Data
Volume I. Introductory Topics. Academic Press, New York. Anyway, LINLOGIT also
allow users to "tweak" a linear logistic function by power-transforming the X
(independent) variable. When this is done, LINLOGIT will calculate a
residual sum of squares for each power transformation attempted. After
several such power transformations have been performed, a user can compare
values of their residual sum of squares; the logistic function which
makes that value the least should then be selected for further examination
(i.e., graphical diagnostics).
