Dear all,
I am using a logit model to find which are the possibities the dependent variable Y to be affected by the X variables.
In the table below are presenting the results of my logit model. The column I_m shows the marginal effects of the model.
Now, I want to interpet how the variable X3 affect the dependent variable but I am a little bit confused. Which value am I going to use for the interpetation? I think that the value -4.160 is going to be used, right? But how am I going to interpret this negative association?
I have read in the forum that in cases where there is a negative association between two variables in the logit model, then an increase of the X variable means that it has less possibility to affect the dependent variable (an increase of the X3 variable means that it has 416% possibility not to affect the dependent variable. Is this correct)?
Thank you
Kind regards
K. Marenas
