Recent work has shown that there may be disadvantages in the use of the chi-square-like goodness-of-fit tests for the logistic regression model proposed by Hosmer and Lemeshow that use fixed groups of the estimated probabilities. A particular concern with these grouping strategies based on estimated

β¦ Synopsis
A batract
A number of statistics have recently been proposed t o asssess the fit of the multiple logistic regression model in both prospective and retrospective studies involving two independent samples as well as in cross sectional studies. These statistics are not appropriate for assessing fit with matched case-control studies.
This paper presents methods for assessing fit for matched case-control studies. Both parametric and nonparametric approaches are suggested even though none are directly analogous t o the statistics proposed in the unmatched situation. Several examples are included t o illustrate the methods.
