calculating crude odds ratio and adjusted odds ratio

[shaikhf...@gmail.com]

Dear friends, I am doing analysis to find out predictors of smoking status among university students. In this case I want to calculate adjusted odds ratio. But I do not know how to calculate odds ratio? I just theoretically known that there are two way to calculate adjusted OR. one is stratification and another way is logistic regression. I also can do this with mantel-haenszel test. but HOW????

Could you please provide me an example that how to do this step by step...

It's not clear what you are asking. If you simply estimate a logistic
regression model with smoking status (1=smoker, 0=non-smoker), the
Exp(B) column in the table of coefficients will show adjusted odds
ratios. If you are asking how this differs from using the
Mantel-Haenszel method, perhaps the following examples will be useful.
