    Hi

    Are you talking about The Hosmer-Lemeshow Goodness-of-Fit Test?
    In the long run, we're all dead.

    Yeah. I found yesterday that the bigger the better, as long as it =>0.05. Yes?

    Hosmer-Lemeshow test is a (summary level) goodness of fit test. Not a residual test.

    Here the assumption is the model is perfect.
    So if the model is perfect then the chisquare value ( obs value - actual value =0) become zero. and P value become 1.
    So higher the P value ( smaller the chisquare value) is better.
    In the long run, we're all dead.
