Again, thanks so much for your help. Is there a "for dummies" version for interpreting the le Cessie and Houwelingen test. I read the 1991 biometrics paper but honestly got lost in the math.
Is it interpreted the same way the Hosmer-Lemeshow test is? ie, a non-significant result means model fits well. I guess what does, what would my p-value of p=0.284362 tell you about my model? I would like to describe the goodness of fit of my model in a paper but I'm worried the average medical reader would not know how to interpret the result of this test whereas there are lots of references on interpreting Hosmer-Lemeshow. (my cross validated c-statistic was 0.69 and r^2 was 0.15) Thanks again for your all help! (also with my k-fold crossvalidation question!) -Rob -------------------------------- Robert Schutt, MD, MCS Resident - Department of Internal Medicine University of Virginia, Charlottesville, Virginia -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Hosmer-Lemeshow-goodness-of-fit-tp3508127p3508219.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
