6Categorical Data

In this chapter we examine the case of a categorical response variable. Categorical responses are types of random variables that are not measured on a numeric scale. Categorical variables may be ordered or unordered. We consider the case of unordered (except in the case of binary — where success is considered favorable to failure).

Categorical data occur commonly in practice. Demographic variables are often categorical. Outcomes in confirmatory clinical trials are often clinical outcomes; e.g., treatment response; i.e., clinically significant improvement. For example, in an oncology trial, remission may be considered the primary outcome with remission being considered a clinically significant improvement. A subject who is reported ...

Julian F.

Head of Cybersecurity

I wanted to learn C and C++, but it didn't click for me until I picked up an O'Reilly book. When I went on the O’Reilly platform, I was astonished to find all the books there, plus live events and sandboxes so you could play around with the technology.

Addison B.

Field Engineer

I’ve been on the O’Reilly platform for more than eight years. I use a couple of learning platforms, but I'm on O'Reilly more than anybody else. When you're there, you start learning. I'm never disappointed.

Amir M.

Data Platform Tech Lead

I'm always learning. So when I got on to O'Reilly, I was like a kid in a candy store. There are playlists. There are answers. There's on-demand training. It's worth its weight in gold, in terms of what it allows me to do.
