Fisher’S Exact Test For Misclassified Data, Tze-San Lee
Fisher’S Exact Test For Misclassified Data, Tze-San Lee
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
Ecole Supérieure de Commerce de Tunis. Fisher’s exact test is adapted to handle the misclassified data arising from comparing two binomial populations. The bias-adjusted odds ratio is proposed to account for misclassification errors. Its expected power depends in a nonlinear way on the true sensitivity and specificity of the classification method. The data taken from the no conviction rate of criminality for two types of twin populations was used to illustrate how to calculate true sensitivity and specificity and the expected power of the adjusted odds ratio.
Matched-Pair Studies With Misclassified Ordinal Data, Tze-San Lee
Matched-Pair Studies With Misclassified Ordinal Data, Tze-San Lee
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
The problem of matched-pair studies with misclassified ordinal data is considered. Misclassification is assumed to occur only between the adjacent columns/rows. Bias-adjusted generalized odds ratio and a test for marginal homogeneity are presented to account for misclassification bias. Data from lambing records of 227 Merino ewes are used to illustrate how to calculate these bias-adjusted estimators and – because validation data are not available – a sensitivity analysis is conducted.
