Do not worry about the SE. The SE listed on the output is the SE of the log odds. You can use the estimate (beta) and SE from the listing to compute a confidence interval (CI)as follows:
CI exp(beta-1.96*SE) to exp(beta-1.96*SE)

Subject: [R] standard error of Binary logistic regression coefficient.
Dear all,
I am struggling with the calculation of standard error of the coefficient in
Binary logistic regression analysis.
I built a binary logsitic regression model as follows and got confused since
the calculation of standard error of coefficients of X1, X2 and X3 are not
the same as the Linear regression.
> fit4 <-glm(Y~X1+X2+X3,data=d4,family=binomial("logit"))
Warning message:
In glm.fit(x = X, y = Y, weights = weights, start = start, etastart =
etastart, :
fitted probabilities numerically 0 or 1 occurred
> summary(fit4)
Call:
glm(formula = Y ~ X1 + X2 + X3, family = binomial("logit"), data = d4)
Deviance Residuals:
Min 1Q Median 3Q Max
-1.641483e+00 -8.421161e-05 0.000000e+00 1.349398e-03 1.417550e+00
Coefficients:
Estimate Std. Error z value Pr(>|z|)
(Intercept) -10.1534523 10.8397717 -0.93669 0.348921
X1 0.3312469 0.3007324 1.10147 0.270693
X2 0.1808757 0.1069222 1.69166 0.090711 .
X3 5.0874665 5.0820163 1.00107 0.316792

Signif. codes: 0 *** 0.001 ** 0.01 * 0.05 . 0.1 1
(Dispersion parameter for binomial family taken to be 1)
Null deviance: 91.4954278 on 65 degrees of freedom
Residual deviance: 5.8129055 on 62 degrees of freedom
AIC: 13.812906
Number of Fisher Scoring iterations: 12
Could somebody suggest the calculation of standard error of X1, X2 and X3 in
the output of my model, please?
Any suggestions will be really appreciated.
Kind Regards
Bessy
