Jmasm 54: A Comparison Of Four Different Estimation Approaches For Prognostic Survival Oral Cancer Model, Wan Muhamad Amir, Muhammad Azeem, Masitah Hayati Harun, Zalila Ali, Mohamad Shafiq
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
Four types of estimation approaches for prognostic survival oral cancer model building are considered via a SAS algorithm: Efron’s Method, Exact Method, Breslow’s Method, and Discrete Method. Each method is illustrated separately and compared according to their coefficient parameter. An approach is considered by adding a bootstrapping technique for each handling ties method and a complete SAS algorithm is supplied for each proposed method, including methods for handling ties.
Jmasm 47: Anova_Hov: A Sas Macro For Testing Homogeneity Of Variance In One-Factor Anova Models (Sas), Isaac Li, Yi-Hsin Chen, Yan Wang, Patricia RodríGuez De Gil, Thanh Pham, Diep Nguyen, Eun Sook Kim, Jeffrey D. Kromrey

Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
Variance homogeneity (HOV) is a critical assumption for ANOVA whose violation may lead to perturbations in Type I error rates. Minimal consensus exists on selecting an appropriate test. This SAS macro implements 14 different HOV approaches in one-way ANOVA. Examples are given and practical issues discussed.

The need for analysts with expertise in big data software is becoming more apparent in today’s society. Unfortunately, the demand for these analysts far exceeds the number available. A potential way to combat this shortage is to identify the software sought by employers and to align this with the software taught by universities. This paper will examine multiple data analysis software – Excel add-ins, SPSS, SAS, Minitab, and R – and it will outline the cost, training, statistical methods/tests/uses, and specific uses within industry for each of these software. It will further explain implications for universities and students.
Jmasm35: A Percentile-Based Power Method: Simulating Multivariate Non-Normal Continuous Distributions (Sas), Jennifer Koran, Todd C. Headrick
Jmasm35: A Percentile-Based Power Method: Simulating Multivariate Non-Normal Continuous Distributions (Sas), Jennifer Koran, Todd C. Headrick
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
The conventional power method transformation is a moment-matching technique that simulates non-normal distributions with controlled measures of skew and kurtosis. The percentile-based power method is an alternative that uses the percentiles of a distribution in lieu of moments. This article presents a SAS/IML macro that implements the percentile-based power method.

Various sampling designs are reviewed within the framework of probability sampling. SAS® code to estimate means and proportions, and their standard errors, using different sampling designs are illustrated using example data sets.
Ordinal Regression Analysis: Predicting Mathematics Proficiency Using The Continuation Ratio Model, Xing Liu, Ann A. O'Connell, Hari Koirala
Ordinal Regression Analysis: Predicting Mathematics Proficiency Using The Continuation Ratio Model, Xing Liu, Ann A. O'Connell, Hari Koirala
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
One commonly used model to analyze ordinal response data is the proportional odds (PO) model. However, if research interest is focused on a particular category and if an individual must pass through lower categories before achieving a higher level, the continuation ratio (CR) model is a more appropriate choice than the PO model. In addition, statistical software, such as Stata and SAS, may use different techniques to estimate the parameters. The CR model is used to illustrate the analysis of ordinal data in education using Stata and SAS and compares the results of fitting the CR model between these two …

Jmasm30 Pi-Lca: A Sas Program Computing The Two-Point Mixture Index Of Fit For Two-Class Lca Models With Dichotomous Variables (Sas), Dongquan Zhang, C. Mitchell Dayton
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
The two-point mixture index of fit enjoys some desirable features in model fit assessment and model selection, however, a need exists for efficient computational strategies. Applying an NLP algorithm, a program using the SAS matrix language is presented to estimate the two-point index of fit for two-class LCA models with dichotomous response variables. The program offers a tool to compute π ∗ for twoclass models and it also provides an alternative program for conducting latent class analysis with SAS. This study builds a foundation for further research on computational approaches for M-class models.
Ordinal Regression Analysis: Fitting The Proportional Odds Model Using Stata, Sas And Spss, Xing Liu
Ordinal Regression Analysis: Fitting The Proportional Odds Model Using Stata, Sas And Spss, Xing Liu
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
Researchers have a variety of options when choosing statistical software packages that can perform ordinal logistic regression analyses. However, statistical software, such as Stata, SAS, and SPSS, may use different techniques to estimate the parameters. The purpose of this article is to (1) illustrate the use of Stata, SAS and SPSS to fit proportional odds models using educational data; and (2) compare the features and results for fitting the proportional odds model using Stata OLOGIT, SAS PROC LOGISTIC (ascending and descending), and SPSS PLUM. The assumption of the proportional odds was tested, and the results of the fitted models were …

Jmasm 26: Hettmansperger And Mckean Linear Model Aligned Rank Test For The Single Covariate And One-Way Ancova Case (Sas), Paul A. Nakonezny, Robert D. Shull
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
A SAS program (SAS 9.1.3 release, SAS Institute, Cary, N.C.) is presented to implement the Hettmansperger and McKean (1983) linear model aligned rank test (nonparametric ANCOVA) for the single covariate and one-way ANCOVA case. As part of this program, SAS code is also provided to derive the residuals from the regression of Y on X (which is step 1 in the Hettmansperger and McKean procedure) using either ordinary least squares regression (proc reg in SAS) or robust regression with MM estimation (proc robustreg in SAS).
