  1. Differences between misclassification rate and w-statistic and adjusted misclassification rate and adjusted W statistic where Pd are identified. Adjusted misclassification rate drops from previous 20.8% on reliable 2.4%.
  2. Misclassification rate = (b + c)/N = (0+34)/163 = 20.8%
  3. Adjusted misclassification rate = (b+c-Pd)/N = (0+34-30)/163 = 4/163 = 2.4%
  4. W statistic = (b-c)/N = (0–34)/163 = -20.8%
  5. Adjusted w- statistic = (b - Pd)/N = (0–30)/163 = -18.4%
