Hi all
Assume I have a data set xx;
Group: 1=group1  , 2=group2
IQ:  1= High, 0 =low
fit <- glm(IQ ~group, data = xx, family = binomial())
summary(fit)
Results
                   Estimate Std. Error z value Pr(>|z|)
(Intercept) -2.55456    0.210 -12.273  < 5e-16 ***
 group          0.36180      0.076   3.952     5.24e-05 ***
the odd ratio = exp(0.36180 )= 1.435912
My question is that the log-odd  estimate 0.3618  is it for group1 or group2?
What does the odd ratio 1.43359 is interpreted?
Thanks in advance
