Use a Poisson regression model to:

·    predict the value of the response variable (fitted values) for the combinations of variable settings that you request

·    create a confidence interval for the mean response at these combinations

·    store the prediction information in the worksheet

See Stored Model Overview for a discussion about how to use stored models.

Dialog box items

Response: Choose a response variable from the drop-down list.

In the second drop-down list, choose whether you will enter variable settings or enter worksheet columns that contain the variable settings.

Enter individual values: Choose to enter variable settings.

Enter columns of values: Choose to enter columns from the worksheet.

Variables table

This table contains a column for each variable in the model. Depending on your choice in the second drop-down list, you enter either values or columns.

·    Values - Enter at least one value for each variable. The table columns must be the same length. You must enter numeric or date/time values for continuous variables. For categorical variables, choose a setting from the drop-down.

·    Columns - Enter one column for each variable. Each column must contain the values for one variable. All columns must be the same length. For a continuous variable, the column must contain numeric or date/time data. For a categorical variable, the column must contain values that match the values you used to fit the model.
