I have two logit regression models with different AIC. I'm using R. my first model has significant variables and AIC 192.7436. And my second model has 1 non-significant variables but with smaller AIC 192.4468. Which model is the best?

    What are the differences between your models ? What is your objective ? – Alexandre C-L Jul 20 '19 at 10:11

    It is not appropriate to do significance testing to select variables for a model. See [this](https://www.stata.com/support/faqs/statistics/stepwise-regression-problems). Don't delete "insignificant" variables. Pre-specify the model. Much more detail in [RMS](http://fharrell.com/links). – Frank Harrell Jul 20 '19 at 10:55
