Hi,
I have a dichotomous variable (Q1) whose answers are Yes or
No.
Also I have 2 categorical explanatory variables (V1 and V2)
with two levels each.
I used logistic regression to determine whether there is an
effect of V1, V2 or an interaction between them.
I used the R and SAS, just for the conference. It happens
that there is disagreement about the effect of the
explanatory variables between the two softwares.
R:
q1 = glm(Q1~grau*genero, family=binomial, data=dados)
anova(q1, test="Chisq")
Df Deviance Resid. Df Resid. Dev P(>|Chi|)
NULL 202 277.82
grau 1 4.3537 201 273.46 0.03693 *
genero 1 1.4775 200 271.99 0.22417
grau:genero 1 0.0001 199 271.99 0.99031
SAS:
proc logistic data=psico;
class genero (param=ref ref='0') grau (param=ref ref='0');
model Q1 = grau genero grau*genero / expb;
run;

The parameters estimates are the same for both.

What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
