Multiple Regression with Discrete Dependent Variables (Pocket Guides to Social Work Research Methods)
by John G. Orme
Multiple regression with discrete dependent variable by Orme and Combs-Orme
There are many books on regression analysis in the market, some also deal with discrete dependent variables as oppose to continuous, but this book seems to function as a hand-book or a manual which we all need whenever we run statistics of all kinds. In my work as a statistical consultant I face these needs all the time, but it is too difficult to open one of the heavy books on regression I have. Instead, I keep this one available and find out that it never disapponints me, always provides some answer. The authors go step by step into the statistics of discrete models, what they do in compare to standard linear regression models, how to make the right interpretation of the estimates, and how to use estimates for predicting probability. This is what I use when I want to explain results to scholars for whom I run statistics. I recommend the book for beginers as well as intermediates.
