Description: |
Covers modern statistical analysis subjects, such as models for count variables, longitudinal data analysis, and reliability analysis. This book analyzes dependent outcomes from clustered and longitudinal study designs using the generalized linear mixed-effects model and weighted generalized estimating equations. |
Synopsis: |
Developed from the authors' graduate-level biostatistics course, Applied Categorical and Count Data Analysis explains how to perform the statistical analysis of discrete data, including categorical and count outcomes. The authors describe the basic ideas underlying each concept, model, and approach to give readers a good grasp of the fundamentals of the methodology without using rigorous mathematical arguments. The text covers classic concepts and popular topics, such as contingency tables, logistic models, and Poisson regression models, along with modern areas that include models for zero-modified count outcomes, parametric and semiparametric longitudinal data analysis, reliability analysis, and methods for dealing with missing values. R, SAS, SPSS, and Stata programming codes are provided for all the examples, enabling readers to immediately experiment with the data in the examples and even adapt or extend the codes to fit data from their own studies. Designed for a one-semester course for graduate and senior undergraduate students in biostatistics, this self-contained text is also suitable as a self-learning guide for biomedical and psychosocial researchers.It will help readers analyze data with discrete variables in a wide range of biomedical and psychosocial research fields. |
