The Logistic Fit Report
Iteration History
After launching Fit Model, an iterative estimation process begins and is reported iteration by iteration. After
the fitting process completes, you can open the Iteration report and see the iteration steps.
Figure 7.2 Iteration History
The Iterations history is available only for Nominal Logistic reports.
Whole Model Test
The Whole Model table shows tests that compare the whole-model fit to the model that omits all the
regressor effects except the intercept parameters. The test is analogous to the Analysis of Variance table for
continuous responses. The negative log-likelihood corresponds to the sums of squares, and the Chi-square
test corresponds to the F test.
