>Subject: [R] pseudo R square and/or C statistic in R logistic regression

The analogue to the regression R rsquared in a GLM 
is the deviance. I don't know what C is but hopefully someone else does and 
will reply. 

Also, John Fox's text, "Applied Regression Analysis, Linear Models and Related 
Methods" and Modern
Applied Statistics with S, by Bill Venables and Brian Ripley, both do a very 
nice job of covering GLM's so I would look at one of those tests for the 
technical details. Agresti is the supposed bible but I think those are quite 
sufficient.
