proc logistic with link cloglog

Hello,

I have a survey data with probable dementia (yes/no) and two independent factors.

I used this logistic model and try to estimate the relative risk using log-binomial model. I am wondering how can I convert the beta estimate into relative risk (RR). I used the estimate statement to calculate the relative risk, but I am not sure about it. Does it give the relative risk. Help!!!

proc surveylogistic data=work.final;
class Immigrant (ref='0') Race (ref='1');
model prob_dementia(event='1') = Immigrant Race/link=cloglog;
weight Weight;
estimate "immigrant vs non-immigrant" Immigrant 1 -1/exp;
run;

Here is the output calculated using estimate option.

The CLOGLOG link does not result in a log binomial model. See this note for estimating a relative risk based on a logistic model. You can use an ordinary logistic model (fit in PROC LOGISTIC or SURVEYLOGISTIC), and then use the NLMeans macro as shown there.
