Logistic regression on consumption of rice (case study of Offa local government Offa, Kwara State, Nigeria)
Journal Title: Scientific Journal of Pure and Applied Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 9
Abstract
This research work is on logistic regression on consumption of locally and imported rice using Offa local government, Kwara state as case study, it aimed to establish a model that can use to predict Age, Income, Expenditure and frequency of locally and imported produced rice and determine the best model among the variables of the outcome. The statistical tools that were used for the analysis of the data is logistic regression, backward elimination method were also employ to check the best model. The variable with the lowest difference among the non significant variable (i.e. change in -2LL) shows the model that are significant, at the end of the analysis it can be concluded that the best model is the one with age since it is not dropped from the model.
