A statistical program is recommended. Over the past few years the percentage of students who leave Lakeland College at the end of the first year has increased. Last year Lakeland started a voluntary one-week orientation program to help first-year students adjust to campus life. If Lakeland is able to show that the orientation program has a positive effect on retention, they will consider making the program a requirement for all first-year students. Lakeland's administration also suspects that students with lower GPAs have a higher probability of leaving Lakeland at the end of the first year. In order to investigate the relation of these variables to retention, Lakeland selected a random sample of 100 students from last year's entering class. The data are contained in the data set named Lakeland. The dependent variable was coded as y = 1 if the student returned to Lakeland for the sophomore year and y = 0 if not. The two independent variables are:

Question
A statistical program is recommended.
Over the past few years the percentage of students who leave Lakeland College at the end of the first year has increased. Last year Lakeland started a voluntary one-week orientation program to help first-year students adjust to campus life. If Lakeland is able to show that the orientation program has a positive effect on retention, they will consider making the program a requirement for all first-year students. Lakeland's administration also suspects that students with lower GPAs have a higher probability of leaving Lakeland at the end of the first year. In order to investigate the relation of these variables to retention, Lakeland selected a random sample of 100 students from last year's entering class. The data are contained in the data set named Lakeland.
The dependent variable was coded as
y = 1
if the student returned to Lakeland for the sophomore year and
y = 0
if not. The two independent variables are:
x1  =  GPA at the end of the first semester
x2  = 
 
0 if the student did not attend the orientation program
1 if the student attended the orientation program.

 

#1) Use the estimated logit computed in part (c) to estimate the probability that students with a 2.5 grade point average who did not attend the orientation program will return to Lakeland for their sophomore year. (Round your answer to four decimal places.) _______
 
#1b) What is the estimated probability that students with a 2.5 grade point average who attended the orientation program will return to Lakeland for their sophomore year? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)______
 
#2) 
What is the estimated odds ratio for the orientation program? (Round your answer to four decimal places.) _______
 
#3) Interpret the estimated odds ratio. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
The odds of students who attended the orientation program continuing are__________ times greater than for students who did not attend the program.
