    <description>&lt;P&gt;Hello, Fellow Users,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I am building an attrition model. I am ending up with 10 predictors. The client wants to know for each record, which the top reason it will attride (like the top reasons the credit card application is denied).&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I haven't worked in credit card industry, so I don't know exactly how they do it. One solution I am thinking is:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;1), Standardize the predictors&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;2), Estimate the coefficient&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;3), Scoring each record&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;4), Rank the absolute value of coefficient * preditors&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Because the end value is due to the summary of each&amp;nbsp;&lt;SPAN&gt;coefficient * preditors, I think I am ranking the important of each predictor.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Could anyone give me some insight whether this works?&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Thanks a lot.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;S.
