Contribution of each covariate to a single prediction in a logistic regression model

Say, for example, that we have a logistic regression model which outputs the probability that a patient will develop a particular disease based on many covariates. We can get an idea of the ...

Does it make sense to generate prediction intervals for the estimates of a logistic regression?

Say I have a binary outcome of 0 or 1 and suppose I were to use logistic regression model to estimate the probability a new sample will have an outcome of 1. I have read answers (for example here: ...

Prediction intervals for the outcome of a logistic regression with binomial response

Suppose we have a logistic regression model: $$\begin{align} P(y=1\vert\mathbf{x}) &= p \\ \log\left(\frac{p}{1-p}\right) &= \boldsymbol{\beta}\mathbf{x} \end{align}$$ Given a random sample $...

Prediction interval for sum of observations from logistic regression

It is possible make prediction intervals for $Y\mid X=x$ where $X \sim \operatorname{Binom}(n,p)$ and $Y \sim \operatorname{Binom}(m,p)$ as answered in my previous question . Now I wish to make a ...

Calculating confidence intervals for ordinal logistic regression predictions

I'm looking to plot the predicted probabilities for an ordinal logistic regression for a 3-level factor with confidence bands around the prediction lines. I'm struggling with the proper way to ...

Is it possible to get a prediction interval for logistic regression via a latent variable?

carbocation asked how to compute prediction intervals for logistic regression. The answer was that prediction intervals don't make sense for logistic regression because the response variable only ...

Risk score uncertainty quantification

I am working on various risk score estimation problems. I assume individual subjects are associated with a true risk $$ r_i = f(x_i, \varepsilon)$$ where $x_i$ is some available information about the ...
