Average marginal effects
The logistic response function is essentially nonlinear. Therefore, it is not immediately clear what is the effect of a unit change in the price ratio on the probability that a customer purchases Hoppiness. A solution is to interpret the effect of a unit change averaged over all customers.
This average marginal effect can be derived by using the function margins(). The function is loaded from the add-on package margins. Finally, you will compare the average marginal effect for price.ratio of the logistic.model to the price.ratio coefficient of the probability.model.
