Hi all! I have built a model to predict interactions with turtles and the model includes an offset for effort:
ZIP<-zeroinfl(Sturgeon~fMesh+fSeason+offset(LogEffort),dist="poisson",link="logit",data=data) I wasn't clear about one aspect of the response to a similar question I recently posted...I apply the predicted model to a new dataset of standard conditions and take the sum to get the total predicted numbers of bycatch: Prediction<-predict(ZIP,newdata=effort,type="response") sum(Prediction) Do I first need to exponentiate before taking the sum as in: Prediction<-exp(predict(ZIP,newdata=effort,type="response")) sum(Prediction) Thanks again in advance!
