A Review Of Frequentist Tests For The 2x2 Binomial Trial, Chris Lloyd Dec 2014

A Review Of Frequentist Tests For The 2x2 Binomial Trial, Chris Lloyd

Chris J. Lloyd

The 2x2 binomial trial is the simplest of data structures yet its statistical analysis and the issues it raises have been debated and revisited for over 70 years. Which analysis should biomedical researchers use in applications? In this review, we consider frequentist tests only, specifically tests with control size either exactly or very close to exactly. These procedures can be classified as conditional and unconditional. Amongst tests motivated by a conditional model, Lancaster’s mid-p and Liebermeister’s test are less conservative than Fisher’s classical test, but do not control type 1 error. Within the conditional framework, only Fisher’s test can be …
