For the binomial the standard link function is the logit: g(y) = log( y/(1-y) ) In the binomial glm model the observed y values are 0, or 1 which give g(0) = -Inf and g(1) = Inf. Switching to g(mu) with 0 mu 1 results in finite values which are much easier for the computer to work with.

Hi Kevin, you mean an s-shaped relationship of a variable with your response? So you have a response that is strictly constrained to the interval 0,1 or, and these limits are not due to truncation or censoring (i.e. your response variable is truly a proportion). This sounds like a good

Wait, are the proportions (probabilities) based on discrete data, or are they truly continuous? If the latter, then beta regression might be more appropriate (e.g. package betareg). If the former, include the sample size for each proportion in the call to glm using the weights= argument. Or set
