Log odds interpretation of logistic regression

This video explains how the linear combination of the regression coefficients and the independent variables can be interpreted as representing the 'log odds' of success.

A 5 mins lecture An 1 hour and a half in class lecture. Mind blowing. Thank you.

Ben Lambert certainly has one of the best YouTube channels ever

Great explanation there. Can't believe this was posted way back in 2013. Still relevant nearly 10 years later!

Omg just the right explanation im looking for. My professor introduced everything out of thin air and it was hard to put pieces together even though I have some backgrounds on logistic regression.

[zgbjnnw]

Excellent explanation! Always come to your channel when I got confused in class! Thank you so much : )

[flashguy]

Cheers Ben, this cleared up my understanding wonderfully!

Very nice. Please raise the audio volume, its very difficult to follow on my laptop.

Thanks for showing but when doing 1-p. When you say the num and denim simplifying to one (you circled in purple) isn’t it just the number values of e^betas positive and negative values equaling zero then leaving you with 1/1+e^betas.

[rodrigomorales]

So to make sure; one can say that log of the odds is equivalent to the dot product (wT dot X) which is where we get our linear combination?

Can't stress enough how gratefoul I'm woth you kind Sir, my college degree in economics will be dedicated to you

[vimalkumar]

Your video is 'To the point'

Is the logistic regression part of GLM? Do you have videos explaining other GLM models in which the dependent variable follows other non-normal distributions, such as Gamma, poisson, negative binomial? Thank you!

[FlyingSavannahs]

Thanks simple videos to understand. Helps with many basic concepts....sometimes requiring review. hope to see more. Taking Categorical Data Analysis in the Spring....Doctoral level and I am not a Biostats major in Public Health....I am Epi. Looking forward to watching all to help review basic concepts I may have let go of.

Thank you very much professor Lambert that was very helpful.

How to explain about linear regression and linear regression in interviewer frequently asking this questions could you make the video

[kenjiyamazaki]

Is this about log of odds, not log of odds ratio?  I believe odds is different from odds ratio.

[FlyingSavannahs]

Also, are you ever available for questions? Answered by video of course. In the U.S.. we have language barriers unless one is of Asian or Indian descent.

[yadavsanderamniwas]

this is not correct definition of odds ratio. p/1-p is odds, not odds ratio.
odds ratio is altogether a different thing than odds. When you have a categorical predictor variable X and target variable Y, odds ratio is the ratio of odds .
odds ratio=(odds of Y when X=1)/ (odds of Y when X=0)
Please research and correct me if I am wrong.
