Type of Tool | SAS Macro |
Title | ROC Cutoff |
Programmer/Email | RuiChen |
Contributing Site | Rochester |
Description | The macro is used to find a cutoff for a continuous predictor, which maximizes the linear combination of specificity and sensitivity when the response variable is binary. A final logistic regression will fit a model using the resulting cutoff. |

Macro Parameters | DSName = name of SAS data set Dir = directory the result file saved. ID = name of unique id for each observation. Outcome = name of outcome binary variable. PredictNum = name of numeric predictor variable. Format = format of the outcome variable. WSpec = any number within the interval [0,1], which maximizes WSpec*specificity+(1-WSpec)*sensitivity e.g. if WSpec=1, the cutpoint is found to maximize the specificity if WSpec=0, the cutpoint is found to maximize the sensitivity if WSpec=0.5, the cutpoint is found to maximize the sum of the specificity and sensitivity OutForm = HTML or RTF, Format of output file; |
