Comment: 9 pages, 1 figure, 1 tableThe standard approximation of a natural logarithm in statistical analysis interprets a linear change of \(p\) in \(\ln(X)\) as a \((1+p)\) proportional change in \(X\), which is only accurate for small values of \(p\). I suggest base-\((1+p)\) logarithms, where \(p\) is chosen ahead of time. A one-unit change in \(\log_{1+p}(X)\) is exactly equivalent to a \((1+p)\) proportional change in \(X\). This avoids an approximation applied too broadly, makes exact interpretation easier and less error-prone, improves approximation quality when approximations are used, makes the change of interest a one-log-unit change like other regression variables, and reduces error from the use of \(\log(1+X)\).
