Abstract

Hosmer-Lemeshow test in computing goodness of fit in logistic regression is revisited. Two different approaches in grouping are investigated. Fallacy of the original data arrangement is pointed out. Randomization of data is implemented in both the grouping methods and a decision process is suggested.
