[R] mboost: Proportional odds boosting model - how to specify the offset?

[Cardenas, Gabriel A]

Thanks for your help.
Mainly, at one point I code the dependent variable PREP24 to dichotomous and run boosted logistic right. I try to use type=”glm” and I get nothing out of the analysis. So I just leave it as binomial()  and then I get this strange response in the .obj where I get a response with a different response for every row? Then I get that error out of confint?

... and I should have said, show us your code. We've no idea what you tried to do (or at least I don't).
