Hello,
I have values like shown below and each row corresponds to the values of a single hospital.
and I am trying to make a ROC chart using Proc Logistic. Unfortunately I get the statistics table but not the ROC curve
Please help me to figure where the mistake was made.
Thank you
HAVE
expectdMortality CASE-MIX-INDEX Hospital
2.91 2.04 1
2.57 2.03 2
1.60 1.46 3
ods graphics on;
proc logistic data=HAVE plots=roc;
model expectdMortality = CASE-MIX-INDEX;
run;
ods graphics off;
proc logistic data=sashelp.class plots=roc;
model sex=age weight height/outroc=roc ;
run;
You can't do logistic regression with a continuous dependent variable, it should be binary or ordinal/nominal but definitely not continuous. You can do a linear regression if that's appropriate.
To follow-up Reeza's comment, your code looks like you might have data in events-trials syntax.
If your data include the variables NUM_DIED and NUM_TREATED then the observed mortality rate for each unit (doctor or hospital) is OBS_MORT_RATE = NUM_DIED / NUM_TREATED.
PROC LOGISTIC supports a syntax that looks very similar: you specify the number or events AND the number of trials on the left side of the MODEL statement, separating those variables by using the '/' symbol. Thus the syntax is
proc logistic plots=roc;
model NUM_DIED / NUM_TREATED.= case_mix_index;
run;
