Presenter: Alan Acock, Ph.D.

This webinar will offer a gentle introduction to logistic regression, a commonly applied statistical technique to predict a binary outcome (e.g., yes/no) by analyzing the relationship between one or more existing independent variables. Attendees will explore the fundamentals and common uses of logistic regressions in the context of family-related research, and gain comfort in interpreting results from this technique and learn how to apply it in their own work.

To assist in meeting this goal, a detailed handout will be provided that includes a step-by-step guide on preparing, implementing, and interpreting results from a logistic regression. Although this can be directly applied to existing research studies, a fictional dataset will also be included for attendees to practice the skills being taught.

Overall, attendees will leave this webinar with the ability to: 

  • Explain the fundamentals of logistic regression
  • Describe the common uses of logistic regression 
  • Perform a logistic regression model
  • Interpret the results of a logistic regression model

Approved for 1.5 hours of CFLE continuing education credit.
