Line 662:
which is proportional to the square of the (uncorrected) sample standard deviation of the ''y<sub>k</sub>'' data points.
We can imagine a case where the ''y<sub>k</sub>'' data points are randomly assigned to the various ''x<sub>k</sub>'', and then fitted using the proposed model. Specifically, we can consider the fits of the proposed model to every permutation of the ''y<sub>k</sub>'' outcomes. It can be shown that the optimized error of any of these fits will never be less than the optimum error of the null model, and that the difference between these minimum error will follow a [[chi-squared distribution]], with degrees of freedom equal those of the proposed model minus those of the null model which, in this case, will be <math>2-1=1</math>. Using the [[chi-squared test]], we may then estimate how many of these permuted sets of ''y<sub>k</sub>'' will yield an minimum error less than or equal to the minimum error using the original ''y<sub>k</sub>'', and so we can estimate how significant an improvement is given by the inclusion of the ''x'' variable in the proposed model.
For logistic regression, the measure of goodness-of-fit is the likelihood function ''L'', or its logarithm, the log-likelihood ''ℓ''. The likelihood function ''L'' is analogous to the <math>\epsilon^2</math> in the linear regression case, except that the likelihood is maximized rather than minimized. Denote the maximized log-likelihood of the proposed model by <math>\hat{\ell}</math>.
