In a logistic regression using SAS PROC QLIM, I have an independent variable, the natural log of annual earnings. The average marginal effect on the dependent variable of this independent variable = -0.0204. EXP(-.0204) = 0.9798 AND (1-0.9798) = 0.0202. Does this mean that a 1.0 percent increase in log earnings reduces the probability of the event by 2.02 percent? Or is the marginal effect interpreted differently? Thanks.
