Table 7.24 is based on automobile accident records in 1988, supplied by the state of Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles. Subjects were classified by whether they were wearing a seat belt, whether ejected, and whether killed. a. Find a loglinear model that describes the data well. Interpret the associations. b. Treating whether killed as the response variable, fit an equivalent logistic model. Interpret the effects on the response. c. Since the sample size is large, goodness-of-fit statistics are large unless the model fits very well. Calculate the dissimilarity index, and interpret.
