https://communities.sas.com/t5/Statistical-Procedures/right-test-and-how-to-interpretate/m-p/35544#M1487 Hi everyone,<BR /> <BR /> I am not an expert in statistic and moreover in the use of JMP, so I am requiring your help.<BR /> <BR /> I would like to find predictive factors for the success of a treatment (3 category :failure, partial and total success). More precisely I would like to test for example, the age (numeric continuous), the sex (character nominal, 2 category) or the localization of the disease (character nominal, 5 category). <BR /> <BR /> What I have done is analyze&gt;Fit Y by X:<BR /> I choose the success of treatment for the Y and the "predictive factor" for X. Depending of the predictive factor (character or numeric), I have a mosaic plot or a logistic fit respectively. <BR /> <BR /> Can some1 tell me if what I have done is good or no? Is there other test to perform? <BR /> Also, I need help for the interpretation of the results. Which numbers do I have to look and what do they mean?<BR /> <BR /> Any help is very welcome!<BR /> <BR /> Regards,<BR /> <BR /> Tetsunochin Message was edited by: Tetsunochin Tue, 15 Jun 2010 10:26:19 GMT Tetsunochin 2010-06-15T10:26:19Z https://communities.sas.com/t5/Statistical-Procedures/right-test-and-how-to-interpretate/m-p/35544#M1487 Hi everyone,<BR /> <BR /> I am not an expert in statistic and moreover in the use of JMP, so I am requiring your help.<BR /> <BR /> I would like to find predictive factors for the success of a treatment (3 category :failure, partial and total success).

PROC LOGISTIC can do it. However, most of us who read this are not JMP users and can't help with the syntax.
