Assignment on logistic regression for MSc.

2008 Year I Students

Consider the SBP (systolic blood pressure) data, where the outcome variable of
interest is HBP(High blood Pressure) coded as 1, if SBP>140mmHg , and zero, if
SBP<=140mmHg. There are information’s on seven covariates assumed to predict
high blood pressure. Using this data:

1. Develop a logistic regression model following the steps of model building


strategies which will help you to identify risk factors for high blood
pressure.
2. Write as a report the interpretation of the final logistic regression model
As well as identify the risk factors in their relative importance

NB: the file named SBP_Group_1 is for group one, SBP_Group_2 is for group 2
and so on. The file “Data_description” contains description about the variables in
the dataset.
