Statistical Models For Analysis Of Dose-Response Data, Karan P. Singh Apr 1989

Statistical Models For Analysis Of Dose-Response Data, Karan P. Singh

Conference on Applied Statistics in Agriculture

In this paper we propose three families of functional models for analysis of dose-response data. The first family is for modeling data which have a steep sloping line for an ascending portion of the response curve and a plateau representing maximum response or a sloping line representing little response at higher application levels. The second family is for modeling data which represent a steep sloping line on the ascending portion of the response curve and a declining curvature for declining response at higher application levels. The third family is for fitting data which show an initial plateau followed by increased …
