Hello #epitwitter and #statstwitter,
There was a recent discussion about the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit test. I thought it would be interesting to talk to Dr. Lemeshow (who is not on twitter) about his thoughts on the test. This thread has some highlights from our chat. 1/n
In the late 70’s, Hosmer and Lemeshow were struggling with the question “How do you know that the probabilities produced by logistic regression models reflect reality?” This was the motivation for developing the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit test. 2/n
