Transient vasoconstriction in skin of fingers ============================================= Data: vaso.dat Keywords: Logistic regression. Description: A study was made into the effect of volume and rate of air inspired by human subjects on the occurrence of transient vasoconstriction in the skin of the fingers. A total of 39 observations were obtained on these variables from 3 subjects in a laboratory. The data are assumed to be independent (including those on the same subject). Number of observations: 39 Variable Description volume Volume of air inspired by subject. rate Rate of air inspired by subject. survive Binary variable: occurrence of transient vasoconstriction in the skin of the fingers=1, no-occurence=0 Source: Krzanowski, W.J.
