data("PIMA")

Arguments

Format

A data frame with 392 observations on the following 8 variables.

Source

Adapted from the UCI data repository https://archive.ics.uci.edu/ml/datasets/Pima+Indians+Diabetes. A variable measuring the ``diabetes pedigree function" has been omitted.

Details

Data on 768 women belonging to the Pima tribe. The purpose is to study the associations between having diabetes and various physiological characteristics. Although there are surely other factors (including genetic) that influence the chance of having diabetes, the hope is that by having women who are genetically similar (all from the Pima tribe), that these other factors are naturally accounted for.
