Hi:

Not sure if this is a SPSS or a technique question. But I have often built models in Answer Tree and then translated them into SPSS using logistic regression.

So the question is this ...

Does anybody know of a way to force certain variables in logistic regression and then have some sort of stepwise function pick up from there?

For example, I may have a situation where I want to base a model off of age, income and some interactive variables I've created. However, I'd also like to see how other variables might play after the variance of these variables have been considered.

Thanks in advance
