Risk, Odds, And Their Ratios, Joseph Hilbe
Risk, Odds, And Their Ratios, Joseph Hilbe
Joseph M Hilbe
A brief monograph explaining the meaning of the terms, risk, risk ratio, odds, and odds ratio and how to calculate each, together with standard errors and confidence intervals. Stata code is provided showing how all of the terms can be calculated by hand, as well as by using logistic and Poisson models.
A Robust Root Mean Square Standardized Effect Size In One-Way Fixed-Effects Anova, Guili Zhang, James Algina
A Robust Root Mean Square Standardized Effect Size In One-Way Fixed-Effects Anova, Guili Zhang, James Algina
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
A robust Root Mean Square Standardized Effect Size (RMSSER) was developed to address the unsatisfactory performance of the Root Mean Square Standardized Effect Size. The coverage performances of the confidence intervals (CI) for RMSSER were investigated. The coverage probabilities of the non-central F distribution-based CI for RMSSER were adequate.
Estimating Internal Consistency Using Bayesian Methods, Miguel A. Padilla, Guili Zhang
Estimating Internal Consistency Using Bayesian Methods, Miguel A. Padilla, Guili Zhang
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
Bayesian internal consistency and its Bayesian credible interval (BCI) are developed and Bayesian internal consistency and its percentile and normal theory based BCIs were investigated in a simulation study. Results indicate that the Bayesian internal consistency is relatively unbiased under all investigated conditions and the percentile based BCIs yielded better coverage performance.

Douglas G. Steigerwald
We study the finite-sample performance of test statistics in linear regression models where the error dependence is of unknown form. With an unknown dependence structure there is traditionally a trade-off between the maximum lag over which the correlation is estimated (the bandwidth) and the amount of heterogeneity in the process. When allowing for heterogeneity, through conditional heteroskedasticity, the correlation at far lags is generally omitted and the resultant inflation of the empirical size of test statistics has long been recognized. To allow for correlation at far lags we study test statistics constructed under the possibly misspecified assumption of conditional homoskedasticity. …
