Re: [R] offset in glm

You need weights=Holders to make the 2nd form equivalent to the first (with a bunch of somewhat annoying and largely irrelevant warnings). This is because 300 claims from 1000 holders is more informative than 3 out of 10 even though the rate is the same. -pd > On 27 Feb 2020, at 19:15 , John

[R] offset in glm

2020-02-27 Thread John Smith
It is simple to use the provided function glm as fit1 below. However, without the offset argument, I tried fit2 below. The reason I used fit2 is that (for X as predictors, b the coefficients) fit2: log(Claims/Holders) = Xb means fit1: log(Claims)=Xb + log(Holders) Obviously the results from fit2

[R] Offset in glm poisson using R vs Exposure in Stata

R-helpers, I am hoping to find someone who uses both R and program Stata for GLMs. I am a beginner R user, finding my own way through; learning code etc. at the same time as learning the statistics I need to complete my project. What I have is the code from Stata and am trying to reproduce th
