we refer to the article “Television Viewing and Physical Fitness in Adults” |
(Res. Quart. Exercise Sport, 1990: 315-320). Subjects were asked about their |
television-viewing habits and were classified as physically fit if they scored in |
the excellent or very good category on a step test. Table 13.11 shows the results in |
the form of a 4 x 2 table. The TV column gives the hours per day |

13.3 Two-Way Contingency Tables 751 |
The rows need to be given specific numeric values for computational pur- |
poses, and it is convenient to make these just 1, 2, 3, 4, because consecutive integers |
correspond to the assumption of a common odds ratio from row to row. The |
columns may need to be labeled as 0 and 1 for input to a program. The logistic |
regression results from MINITAB are shown in Figure 13.5, where the estimated |
coefficient f, for TV is given as -.29 and the odds ratio is given as .75 = e~°. This |
means that, for each increase in TV watching category, the odds of being fit decline |
to about 3/4 of the previous value. There is a loss of 25% for each increment in TV. |
The output shows two tests for f), a z based on the ratio of the coefficient to |
its estimated standard error and G, which is based on a likelihood ratio test and |
gives the chi-squared approximation for the difference of log likelihoods. The two |
tests usually give very similar results, with G being approximately the square of z. |
In this case they agree that the P-value is around .02, which means that we should |
reject at the .05 level the hypothesis that ,; = 0, and we can conclude that there is a |
relationship between TV watching and fitness. Of course, the existence of a |
relationship does not imply anything about one causing the other. By the way, a |
chi-squared test yields xr = 6.161 with 3 df, P = .104, so with this test we would |
not conclude that there is a relationship, even at the 10% level. There is an |
advantage in using logistic regression for this kind of data. |

Suppose there are two ordinal factors, each with more than two levels. This |
too can be handled with logistic regression, but it requires a procedure called |
ordinal logistic regression that allows an ordinal dependent variable. When one |
factor is ordinal and the other is not, the analysis can be done with multinomial |
(also called nominal or polytomous) logistic regression, which allows a non-ordinal |
dependent variable. |
Models and methods for analyzing data in which each individual is cate- |
gorized with respect to three or more factors (multidimensional contingency tables) |
are discussed in several of the references in the chapter bibliography. |
