Dear Michael, Look more closely at the two plots: With rescale.axis=TRUE (the default), the vertical axis is on the scale of the linear predictor (i.e., the logit scale), but the tick marks are labelled in the scale of the response (i.e., the probability scale); this preserves the linear structure of the model. With rescale.axis=FALSE, the vertical axis is on the scale of the response (directly on the probability scale).
If you want the vertical axis labelled on the scale of the linear predictor, specify type="link" (the default is "response"). I hope this helps, John -------------------------------- John Fox Department of Sociology McMaster University Hamilton, Ontario Canada L8S 4M4 905-525-9140x23604 http://socserv.mcmaster.ca/jfox -------------------------------- > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Michael Kubovy > Sent: Friday, October 06, 2006 7:19 AM > To: R list > Subject: [R] glm and plot.effects > > Dear R-helpers, > > I don't see a difference between the following two plots of > effect objects, which I understand should be different.
