Interpretation of results
Closed this issue · 4 comments

Hi! I'm looking for advice on how to interpret the results of qgcomp.boot. I am using multivariate logistic regression and x1,x2,x3 are all negatively correlated with Y. In qgcomp.boot analysis (adjusted for the same variables) I noticed that the weight value of x1 is negative and the effect sizes are in a different order than in the logistic regression analysis, how should I interpret the anomalous results? Is using WQS a better option? How can I understand the weight values?

There are no weights in the qgcomp.boot methods, so I'm not sure what you
mean here. Bivariate correlations are not the same as adjusted regression
results, so you may see associations in different directions as a result of
confounding. I can't offer much other advice without any specifics.

Hello, thank you for your reply, and please forgive me for the error in expression! I am using qgcomp.noboot. How can I understand the weight values? How should I properly interpret the results of the weights? I don't quite understand what the positive and negative represent? Is it just positive and negative correlation? What about contradictions with positive or negative correlations derived from traditional regression analyses? Sorry, I am in the initial learning stage and would be grateful if you could respond!
Best wishes!

Please read the package vignette in R and let me know if you have any questions after that. Example 3 might be most relevant.
