I'm trying to understand how to interpret the coefficients in a logit model. I know they represent the change in log-odds, but I'm looking for a more detailed explanation on their interpretation and what they actually mean in the context of the model.

Specifically, the odds ratio can be expressed as the probability of the event happening divided by the probability of the event not happening. This ratio provides a clearer picture of how likely an event is to occur relative to its non-occurrence.

The logit coefficient can be transformed into an odds ratio by taking the exponential of the coefficient (expB). This transformation allows us to interpret the effect of an independent variable on the odds ratio.

In statistical modeling, the logit coefficient provides a measure of the influence of independent variables on the dependent variable in logistic regression. However, interpreting this coefficient directly can be challenging, particularly for dummy variables.

For dummy variables, the odds ratio represents the ratio of the odds of the event occurring in the group with the independent variable present compared to the odds of the event occurring in the group without the independent variable.

A more intuitive way to understand the logit coefficient is through the concept of the "odds ratio." The odds ratio is a simple ratio that compares the probability of an event occurring to the probability of it not occurring.
