Logistic regression coefficients

pb42

It is my understanding that the logistic regression coefficient sign describes whether there is a positive or negative relationship between an independent variable and a dependent variable. However, I am confused as to which dependent variable option is described by this relationship. If the dependent variable is something like Yes/No (i.e., Yes - will default, No - will not default), how does RapidMiner set that relationship? If the logistic regression coefficient is positive does that mean there is a positive relationship between that variable and "Yes - will default" or between that dependent variable and "No - will not default"?

Hi,
you can use Remap Binominal to define the 0 and 1 case for your bioniminal label. That makes it explicit.

Best,
