Systematic Reviews Of Animal Experiments Demonstrate Poor Contributions To Human Healthcare, Andrew Knight
Systematic Reviews Of Animal Experiments Demonstrate Poor Contributions To Human Healthcare, Andrew Knight
Experimentation Collection
Widespread reliance on animal models during preclinical research and toxicity testing assumes their reasonable predictivity for human outcomes. However, of 20 published systematic reviews examining human clinical utility located during a comprehensive literature search, animal models demonstrated significant potential to contribute toward clinical interventions in only two cases, one of which was contentious. Included were experiments expected by ethics committees to lead to medical advances, highly-cited experiments published in major journals, and chimpanzee experiments—the species most generally predictive of human outcomes. Seven additional reviews failed to demonstrate utility in reliably predicting human toxicological outcomes such as carcinogenicity and teratogenicity. Results …
Methods Of Assessing And Ranking Probable Sources Of Error, Nataniel Greene
Methods Of Assessing And Ranking Probable Sources Of Error, Nataniel Greene
Publications and Research
A classical method for ranking n potential events as sources of error is Bayes' theorem. However, a ranking based on Bayes' theorem lacks a fundamental symmetry: the ranking in terms of blame for error will not be the reverse of the ranking in terms of credit for lack of error. While this is not a flaw in Bayes' theorem, it does lead one to inquire whether there are related methods which have such symmetry. Related methods explored here include the logical version of Bayes' theorem based on probabilities of conditionals, probabilities of biconditionals, and ratios or differences of credit to …
A Monte Carlo Power Analysis Of Traditional Repeated Measures And Hierarchical Multivariate Linear Models In Longitudinal Data Analysis, Hua Fang, Gordon P. Brooks, Maria L. Rizzo, Kimberly A. Espy, Robert S. Barcikowski
A Monte Carlo Power Analysis Of Traditional Repeated Measures And Hierarchical Multivariate Linear Models In Longitudinal Data Analysis, Hua Fang, Gordon P. Brooks, Maria L. Rizzo, Kimberly A. Espy, Robert S. Barcikowski
Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience Laboratory: Faculty Publications
The power properties of traditional repeated measures and hierarchical linear models have not been clearly determined in the balanced design for longitudinal studies in the current literature. A Monte Carlo power analysis of traditional repeated measures and hierarchical multivariate linear models are presented under three variance-covariance structures. Results suggest that traditional repeated measures have higher power than hierarchical linear models for main effects, but lower power for interaction effects. Significant power differences are also exhibited when power is compared across different covariance structures. Results also supplement more comprehensive empirical indexes for estimating model precision via bootstrap estimates and the approximate …

Confidence Intervals For The Squared Multiple Semipartial Correlation Coefficient, James Algina, H. J. Keselman, Randall D. Penfield
Confidence Intervals For The Squared Multiple Semipartial Correlation Coefficient, James Algina, H. J. Keselman, Randall D. Penfield
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
The squared multiple semipartial correlation coefficient is the increase in the squared multiple correlation coefficient that occurs when two or more predictors are added to a multiple regression model. Coverage probability was investigated for two variations of each of three methods for setting confidence intervals for the population squared multiple semipartial correlation coefficient. Results indicated that the procedure that provides coverage probability in the [.925, .975] interval for a 95% confidence interval depends primarily on the number of added predictors. Guidelines for selecting a procedure are presented.
On A Test Of Independence Via Quantiles That Is Sensitive To Curvature, Rand R. Wilcox
On A Test Of Independence Via Quantiles That Is Sensitive To Curvature, Rand R. Wilcox
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
Let (Yi ,Xi ) , i =1,..., n , be a random sample from some p+1 variate distribution where Xi is a vector having length p. Many methods for testing the hypothesis that Y is independent of X are relatively insensitive to a broad class of departures from independence. Power improvements focus on the median of Y or some other quantile and test the hypothesis that the regression surface is a horizontal plane versus some unknown form. A wild bootstrap method (Stute et al. 1998) can be used based on quantiles, but with small or moderate sample …

Tests For Independence In Two-Way Contingency Tables With Small Samples, Stephen Sharp
Tests For Independence In Two-Way Contingency Tables With Small Samples, Stephen Sharp
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
When testing the null hypothesis of independence in a two-way contingency table, the likelihood ratio test statistic is approximately distributed as Chi-squared d for large sample sizes (N) but may not be for small samples. This paper presents expressions which match the mean of the statistic to Chi-squared d as far as N−1 and N−2, derives a method of estimating the expressions from observed data and evaluates them using Monte Carlo simulations. It is concluded that using appropriate dividing factors, rejection rates after matching are more accurate than for either the unadjusted likelihood ratio statistic …
Utility Of Weights For Weighted Kappa As A Measure Of Interrater Agreement On Ordinal Scale, Moonseong Heo
Utility Of Weights For Weighted Kappa As A Measure Of Interrater Agreement On Ordinal Scale, Moonseong Heo
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
Kappa statistics, unweighted or weighted, are widely used for assessing interrater agreement. The weights of the weighted kappa statistics in particular are defined in terms of absolute and squared distances in ratings between raters. It is proposed that those weights can be used for assessment of interrater agreements. A closed form expectations and variances of the agreement statistics referred to as AI1 and AI2, functions of absolute and squared distances in ratings between two raters, respectively, are obtained. AI1 and AI2 are compared with the weighted and unweighted kappa statistics in …
Robustness Of Some Estimators Of Linear Model With Autocorrelated Error Terms When Stochastic Regressors Are Normally Distributed, Kayode Ayinde, J. O. Olaomi
Robustness Of Some Estimators Of Linear Model With Autocorrelated Error Terms When Stochastic Regressors Are Normally Distributed, Kayode Ayinde, J. O. Olaomi
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
Performances of estimators of the linear model under different level of autocorrelation (ρ) are known to be affected by different specifications of regressors. The robustness of some methods of parameter estimation of linear model to autocorrelation are examined when stochastic regressors are normally distributed. Monte Carlo experiments were conducted at both low and high replications. Comparison and preference of estimator(s) are based on their performances via bias, absolute bias, variance and more importantly the mean squared error of the estimated parameters of the model. Results show that the performances of the estimators improve with increased replication. In estimating …

On Measuring The Relative Importance Of Explanatory Variables In A Logistic Regression , D. Roland Thomas, Pengcheng Zhu, Bruno D. Zumbo, Shantanu Dutta
On Measuring The Relative Importance Of Explanatory Variables In A Logistic Regression , D. Roland Thomas, Pengcheng Zhu, Bruno D. Zumbo, Shantanu Dutta
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
A search is described for valid methods of assessing the importance of explanatory variables in logistic regression, motivated by earlier work on the relationship between corporate governance variables and the issuance of restricted voting shares (RSF). The methods explored are adaptations of Pratt’s (1987) approach for measuring variable importance in simple linear regression, which is based on a special partition of R2. Pseudo-R2 measures for logistic regression are briefly reviewed, and two measures are selected which can be partitioned in a manner analogous to that used by Pratt. One of these is ultimately selected for the variable …
Using Exploratory Factor Analysis For Locating Invariant Referents In Factor Invariance Studies, W. Holmes Finch, Brian F. French
Using Exploratory Factor Analysis For Locating Invariant Referents In Factor Invariance Studies, W. Holmes Finch, Brian F. French
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
Model identification in multi-group confirmatory factor analysis (MCFA) requires an equality constraint of referent variables across groups. Invariance assumption violations make it difficult to locate parameters that actually differ. Suggested procedures for locating invariant referents are cumbersome, complex, and provide imperfect results. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) may be an alternative because of its ease of use, yet empirical evaluation of its effectiveness is lacking. EFAs accuracy for distinguishing invariant from non-invariant referents was examined.
Probability Of Coverage And Interval Length For Two-Group Techniques Assessing The Median And Trimmed Mean, S. Jonathan Mends-Cole
Probability Of Coverage And Interval Length For Two-Group Techniques Assessing The Median And Trimmed Mean, S. Jonathan Mends-Cole
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
The purpose of the present study was to assess the probability of coverage and interval length of selected statistical techniques that have a higher finite sample breakdown point than the mean and appropriate levels of probability of coverage when using Bradley’s (1978) criterion. The techniques were examined using real education and psychology datasets (Sawilowsky & Fahoome, 2003, Sawilowsky & Blair, 1992). Welch’s test exhibited appropriate coverage for the smooth symmetric, mass at zero, digit preference, and extreme bimodal distributions. Yuen’s technique performed well under an extreme bimodal distribution. Results concerning the Maritz-Jarrett and the McKean-Schrader techniques are also presented.
Test For Spatio-Temporal Counts Being Poisson, Haiyan Chen, Howard H. Stratton
Test For Spatio-Temporal Counts Being Poisson, Haiyan Chen, Howard H. Stratton
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
The new Log-Linear Test (TL) is proposed to identify when the Poisson model fails for a collection of count random variables. TL is shown to have better rejection rate with small sample size and essentially the same power compared to a classical Fisher-Bohning’s Statistic TF for standard alternatives to Poisson.

Measuring Overall Heterogeneity In Meta-Analyses: Application To Csf Biomarker Studies In Alzheimer’S Disease, Chengjie Xiong, Feng Gao, Yan Yan, Jingqin Luo, Yunju Sung, Gang Shi
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
The interpretations of statistical inferences from meta-analyses depend on the degree of heterogeneity in the meta-analyses. Several new indices of heterogeneity in meta-analyses are proposed, and assessed the variation/difference of these indices through a large simulation study. The proposed methods are applied to biomakers of Alzheimer’s disease.
When Sensitivity Is A Function Of Age And Time Spent In The Preclinical State In Periodic Cancer Screening, Dongfeng Wu, Ricolindo L. Cariño, Xiaoqin Wu
When Sensitivity Is A Function Of Age And Time Spent In The Preclinical State In Periodic Cancer Screening, Dongfeng Wu, Ricolindo L. Cariño, Xiaoqin Wu
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
Probability models are extended for periodic cancer screening trials to model sensitivity when it is changing with an individual’s age and time spent in the preclinical state. Wu et al. (2005) showed that sensitivity is monotone increasing with age, but intuitively, sensitivity is also a function of the time one has spent in the preclinical stage. This allows us to infer sensitivity at a late stage, just before symptoms manifest. We developed the probability model and applied Bayesian inference to the HIP study group data. The methodology we developed is also applicable to other kinds of chronic diseases.

Log-Linear Model To Assess Socioeconomic And Environmental Factors With Childhood Diarrhea Using Hospital Based Surveillance, Krishnan Rajendran, Thandavarayan Ramamurthy, Sujit Kumar Bhattacharya
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
Categorical outcomes with environment factors analyzed by log linear model are frequent in the environmental epidemiological literature. Epidemiological and socio-economical factors were obtained on 1,119 children below the age of 5 from Infectious Diseases Hospital (IDH) at the Kolkata, India. Significant associations of diarrhea were observed in the rural areas with family income, father’s occupation as a daily labor, literacy of parents, non-cemented floor and wall constructed of mud, and type of storage (wide mouthed earthen pot). The results of the study with specific Log linear model confirm environmental factors were important implications for childhood diarrhea in the rural community. …
Robust General Linear Models And Graphics Via A User Interface (Web Rglm), Kimberly Crimin, Asheber Abebe, Joseph W. Mckean
Robust General Linear Models And Graphics Via A User Interface (Web Rglm), Kimberly Crimin, Asheber Abebe, Joseph W. Mckean
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
Rank-based procedures provide superior estimation and testing techniques when the data deviate from normality or contain gross outliers. However, these robust techniques are rarely incorporated in a nonparametric statistics or methods courses due to the lack of computational tools. One reason for this is the existence of certain unavoidable complexities in the numerical methods due to the absence of a closedform solution for the rank estimation problem. This article introduces a user interface, Web RGLM, which may be used to perform rank-based analyses of linear models across the World Wide Web. These models include simple location problems to complicated ANOVA …
Effect On Recreation Benefit Estimates From Correcting For On-Site Sampling Biases And Heterogeneous Trip Overdispersion In Count Data Recreation Demand Models (Stata), Roberto Martínez-Espiñeira, Joseph M. Hilbe
Effect On Recreation Benefit Estimates From Correcting For On-Site Sampling Biases And Heterogeneous Trip Overdispersion In Count Data Recreation Demand Models (Stata), Roberto Martínez-Espiñeira, Joseph M. Hilbe
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
Correction procedures (STATA commands NBSTRAT and GNBSTRAT) are applied to simultaneously account for zero-truncation, endogenous stratification, and overdispersion, and also consider heterogeneity in the overdispersion parameter. Their effect is shown on welfare estimates from previous studies, confirming that the routines perform the appropriate correction and only when endogenous stratification is expected.
Computing Multivariate Process Capability Indices (Excel), Michele Scagliarini, Raffaele Vermiglio
Computing Multivariate Process Capability Indices (Excel), Michele Scagliarini, Raffaele Vermiglio
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
In manufacturing industry there is growing interest in measures of process capability under multivariate setting. Although there are many statistical packages to assess univariate capability, a current problem with the multivariate measures of capability is the shortage of user friendly software. In this article a Visual Basic program has been developed to realize an Excel spreadsheet that may be used to compute two multivariate measures of capability. The aim of this article is to provide a useful tool for practitioners dealing with multivariate capability assessment problems. The features of the program include easy data entry and clear report format.

A modified hidden logit estimation procedure is presented based on Warner (1965) randomized response model. Monte Carlo simulations explore the behavior of this estimator and compare its performance with the ordinary logits estimator. Warner’s model is more protective and less jeopardizing.
Estimation Of Covariance Matrix In Signal Processing When The Noise Covariance Matrix Is Arbitrary, Madhusudan Bhandary
Estimation Of Covariance Matrix In Signal Processing When The Noise Covariance Matrix Is Arbitrary, Madhusudan Bhandary
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
An estimator of the covariance matrix in signal processing is derived when the noise covariance matrix is arbitrary based on the method of maximum likelihood estimation. The estimator is a continuous function of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the matrix Σ̂11/2S∗Σ̂11/2, where S∗ is the sample covariance matrix of observations consisting of both noise and signals and Σ̂1 is the estimator of covariance matrix based on observations consisting of noise only. Strong consistency and asymptotic normality of the estimator are briefly discussed.

A Study In Rule-Specific Issue Categorization For E-Rulemaking, Claire Cardie, Cynthia R. Farina, Adil Aijaz, Matt Rawding, Stephen Purpura
A Study In Rule-Specific Issue Categorization For E-Rulemaking, Claire Cardie, Cynthia R. Farina, Adil Aijaz, Matt Rawding, Stephen Purpura
Cornell Law Faculty Publications
We address the e-rulemaking problem of categorizing public comments according to the issues that they address. In contrast to previous text categorization research in e-rulemaking, and in an attempt to more closely duplicate the comment analysis process in federal agencies, we employ a set of rule-specific categories, each of which corresponds to a significant issue raised in the comments. We describe the creation of a corpus to support this text categorization task and report interannotator agreement results for a group of six annotators. We outline those features of the task and of the e-rulemaking context that engender both a non-traditional …
Small Sample Methods For The Analysis Of Clustered Binary Data, Lawrence J. Cook
Small Sample Methods For The Analysis Of Clustered Binary Data, Lawrence J. Cook
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
There are several solutions for analysis of clustered binary data. However, the two most common tools in use today, generalized estimating equations and random effects or mixed models, rely heavily on asymptotic theory. However, in many situations, such as small or sparse samples, asymptotic assumptions may not be met. For this reason we explore the utility of the quadratic exponential model and conditional analysis to estimate the effect size of a trend parameter in small sample and sparse data settings. Further we explore the computational efficiency of two methods for conducting conditional analysis, the network algorithm and Markov chain Monte …
