A00-240 SAS Statistical Business Analysis SAS9: Regression and Model Questions and Answers

Questions 4

Consider scoring new observations in the SCORE procedure versus the SCORE statement in the LOGISTIC procedure.

Which statement is true?

Options:

A.

The SCORE statement in the LOGISTIC procedure returns only predicted probabilities, whereas the SCORE procedure returns only predicted logits.

B.

The SCORE statement in the LOGISTIC procedure returns only predicted logits, whereas the SCORE procedure returns only predicted probabilities.

C.

Unlike the SCORE procedure, the SCORE statement in the LOGISTIC procedure produces both predicted probabilities and predicted logits.

D.

The SCORE procedure and the SCORE statement in the LOGISTIC procedure produce the same output.

Refer to the exhibit:

The plots represent two models, A and B, being fit to the same two data sets, training and validation.

Model A is 90.5% accurate at distinguishing blue from red on the training data and 75.5% accurate at doing the same on validation data. Model B is 83% accurate at distinguishing blue from red on the training data and 78.3% accurate at doing the same on the validation data.

Which of the two models should be selected and why?

Options:

A.

Model A. It is more complex with a higher accuracy than model B on training data.

B.

Model A. It performs better on the boundary for the training data.

C.

Model B. It is more complex with a higher accuracy than model A on validation data.

D.

Model B. It is simpler with a higher accuracy than model A on validation data.

Questions 8

Which method is NOT an appropriate way to score new observations with a known target in a logistic regression model?

Options:

A.

Use the SCORE statement in the LOGISTIC procedure.

B.

Augment the training data set with new observations and set their responses to missing.

C.

Augment the training data set with new observations and rerun the LOGISTIC procedure.

D.

Use the saved parameter estimates from the LOGISTIC procedure and score new observations in the SCORE procedure.

Questions 10

A company has branch offices in eight regions. Customers within each region are classified as either "High Value" or "Medium Value" and are coded using the variable name VALUE. In the last year, the total amount of purchases per customer is used as the response variable.

Suppose there is a significant interaction between REGION and VALUE. What can you conclude?

Options:

A.

More high value customers are found in some regions than others.

B.

The difference between average purchases for medium and high value customers depends on the region.

C.

Regions with higher average purchases have more high value customers.

D.

Regions with higher average purchases have more medium value customers.

Questions 11

Refer to the lift chart:

At a depth of 0.1, Lift = 3.14. What does this mean?

Options:

A.

Selecting the top 10% of the population scored by the model should result in 3.14 times more events than a random draw of 10%.

B.

Selecting the observations with a response probability of at least 10% should result in 3.14 times more events than a random draw of 10%.

C.

Selecting the top 10% of the population scored by the model should result in 3.14 times greater accuracy than a random draw of 10%.

D.

Selecting the observations with a response probability of at least 10% should result in 3.14 times greater accuracy than a random draw of 10%.

Questions 13

An analyst fits a logistic regression model to predict whether or not a client will default on a loan. One of the predictors in the model is agent, and each agent serves 15-20 clients each. The model fails to converge. The analyst prints the summarized data, showing the number of defaulted loans per agent. See the partial output below:

What is the most likely reason that the model fails to converge?

Options:

A.

There is quasi-complete separation in the data.

B.

There is collinearity among the predictors.

C.

There are missing values in the data.

D.

There are too many observations in the data.

Questions 14

Refer to the exhibit.

Output from a multiple linear regression analysis is shown.

What is the most appropriate statement concerning collinearity between the input variables?

Options:

A.

Collinearity is a problem since all variance inflation values are less than 10.

B.

Collinearity is not a problem since all variance inflation values are less than 10.

C.

Collinearity is not a problem since all Pr>|t| values are less than 0.05.

D.

Collinearity is a problem since all Pr>|t| values are less than 0.05.
