Abstract
The logistic regression model has been become commonly used to study the association between a binary response variable; it is widespread application rests on its easy application and interpretation. The subject of assessment of goodness-of-fit in logistic regression model has attracted the attention of many scientists and researchers. Goodness-of-fit tests are methods to determine the suitability of the fitted model. Many of methods proposed and discussed for assessing goodness-of fit in logistic regression model, however, the asymptotic distribution of goodness-of-fit statistics are less examine, it is need more investigated. This work, will focus on assessing the behavior of asymptotic distribution of goodness-of-fit tests, also make comparison between global goodness-of-fit tests, and evaluate it by simulation.
