Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Statistical Analysis of Contingency Tables is an invaluable tool for statistical inference in contingency tables. It covers effect size estimation, confidence intervals, and hypothesis tests for the binomial and the multinomial distributions, unpaired and paired 2x2 tables, rxc tables, ordered rx2 and 2xc tables, paired cxc tables, and stratified tables. For each type of table, key concepts are introduced, and a wide range of intervals and tests, including recent and unpublished methods and developments, are presented and evaluated. Topics such as diagnostic accuracy, inter-rater reliability, and missing data are also covered. The presentation is concise and easily accessible for readers with diverse professional backgrounds, with the mathematical details kept to a minimum.

Book Exact Confidence Intervals for P Sub 1 to P Sub 2 in 2 by 2 Contingency Tables

Download or read book Exact Confidence Intervals for P Sub 1 to P Sub 2 in 2 by 2 Contingency Tables written by Thomas J. Santner and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Consider two binomial populations Pi sub 1 and Pi sub 2 having success probabilities P sub 1 in (0,1) and P sub 2 in (0,1) respectively. This paper studies the problem of constructing exact small sample confidence intervals for the difference of the success probabilities, delta is nearly = to P sub 1 to P sub 2 and their ratio (the 'relative risk'), Rho is nearly = to P sub 1/P sub 2 based on independent random samples of sizes N sub 1 and N sub 2 from Pi sub 1 and Pi sub 2 respectively. These are nuisance parameter problems; hence the proposed intervals achieve coverage probabilities greater than or equal to their nominal (1-alpha) levels. Two methods of constructing intervals are proposed. The first one is based on the well known conditional intervals for the odds ratio. The second method directly generates unconditional intervals of the desired size. An algorithm is given for producing the intervals for arbitrary N sub 1 and N sub 2. The 2x2 case is given as an illustrative example. Some comparisons are made.

Book An Introduction to Categorical Data Analysis

Download or read book An Introduction to Categorical Data Analysis written by Alan Agresti and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2018-10-11 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A valuable new edition of a standard reference The use of statistical methods for categorical data has increased dramatically, particularly for applications in the biomedical and social sciences. An Introduction to Categorical Data Analysis, Third Edition summarizes these methods and shows readers how to use them using software. Readers will find a unified generalized linear models approach that connects logistic regression and loglinear models for discrete data with normal regression for continuous data. Adding to the value in the new edition is: • Illustrations of the use of R software to perform all the analyses in the book • A new chapter on alternative methods for categorical data, including smoothing and regularization methods (such as the lasso), classification methods such as linear discriminant analysis and classification trees, and cluster analysis • New sections in many chapters introducing the Bayesian approach for the methods of that chapter • More than 70 analyses of data sets to illustrate application of the methods, and about 200 exercises, many containing other data sets • An appendix showing how to use SAS, Stata, and SPSS, and an appendix with short solutions to most odd-numbered exercises Written in an applied, nontechnical style, this book illustrates the methods using a wide variety of real data, including medical clinical trials, environmental questions, drug use by teenagers, horseshoe crab mating, basketball shooting, correlates of happiness, and much more. An Introduction to Categorical Data Analysis, Third Edition is an invaluable tool for statisticians and biostatisticians as well as methodologists in the social and behavioral sciences, medicine and public health, marketing, education, and the biological and agricultural sciences.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Analysis of Biological Data provides students with a practical foundation of statistics for biology students. Every chapter has several biological or medical examples of key concepts, and each example is prefaced by a substantial description of the biological setting. The emphasis on real and interesting examples carries into the problem sets where students have dozens of practice problems based on real data. The third edition features over 200 new examples and problems. These include new calculation practice problems, which guide the student step by step through the methods, and a greater number of examples and topics come from medical and human health research. Every chapter has been carefully edited for even greater clarity and ease of use. All the data sets, R scripts for all worked examples in the book, as well as many other teaching resources, are available to qualified instructors (see below).

Written in an easy-to-understand style and packed with real life examples, the text clearly explains the statistical principles used in the medical literature. Taking readers through the common statistical methods seen in published research and guidelines, the text focuses on how to interpret and analyse statistics for clinical practice. Using extracts from real studies, the author illustrates how data can be employed correctly and incorrectly in medical research helping readers to evaluate the statistics they encounter and appropriately implement findings in clinical practice. End of chapter exercises, case studies and multiple choice questions help readers to apply their learning and develop their own interpretative skills. This thoroughly revised edition includes new chapters on meta-analysis, missing data, and survival analysis.

Download or read book Intuitive Biostatistics written by Harvey Motulsky and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2017-11-15 with total page 608 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " Intuitive Biostatistics takes a non-technical, non-quantitative approach to statistics and emphasizes interpretation of statistical results rather than the computational strategies for generating statistical data. This makes the text especially useful for those in health-science fields who have not taken a biostatistics course before. The text is also an excellent resource for professionals in labs, acting as a conceptually oriented and accessible biostatistics guide. With an engaging and conversational tone, Intuitive Biostatistics provides a clear introduction to statistics for undergraduate and graduate students and also serves as a statistics refresher for working scientists.

Book Confidence Intervals

Download or read book Confidence Intervals written by Michael Smithson and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2003 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Smithson first introduces the basis of the confidence interval framework and then provides the criteria for "best" confidence intervals, along with the trade-offs between confidence and precision. Next, using a reader-friendly style with lots of worked out examples from various disciplines, he covers such pertinent topics as: the transformation principle whereby a confidence interval for a parameter may be used to construct an interval for any monotonic transformation of that parameter; confidence intervals on distributions whose shape changes with the value of the parameter being estimated; and, the relationship between confidence interval and significance testing frameworks, particularly regarding power.
