| Abstract | Invited by the National Educational Panel Study (NEPS), during the Winter 2011/12, the author gave a series of lectures about ‘Statistical methods in sociological research of education’. This paper comprises an elaboration of one of these lectures discussing the understanding of logit models which are often used in educational research. More specifically, the paper contributes to an ongoing debate which concerns the comparison of explanatory variables across nested logit models. The focus often is on model parameters (and log odd ratios which are directly connected with such parameters). The present paper argues that this focus can be easily misleading when comparing models and instead takes effects, defined as differences of conditional expectations, as the quantities of main interest.
