Solution

The correct answer is A. The odds ratio is the ratio of the odds after a unit change in the predictor to the original odds. This is a statistical term used in logistic regression to show the strength of the association between a predictor (independent variable) and the outcome (dependent variable). It tells us how much the odds of the outcome increase (or decrease) with a one-unit increase in the predictor.
