Points:
1. Logistic model with 10 predictors, the key one of which is dichotomous
2. Key independent var: taking a specific class
3. Depvar: graduating
4. My nonspecialist audience operates “on the ground” and won’t care what an "odds ratio" is. Magnitude of the key predictor influence must be expressed in maximally simplistic-intuitive terms.
5. I don’t know “the alternatives” but intuitive to me would be expressing the change in probability, like the change in the chance of rain, associated with taking the class. Expressed differently, that intuitive number would be meaningful to me, and I think my audience, if the probability difference (bump) is “in the same unit” and can be compared against the raw descriptive probability of the outcome (graduating)
6. I also welcome language on how to language the magnitude of interest to my “on the ground” audience.
7. Side note: my presentation will be relatively short
Suggestions?
Much thanks in advance.
