Adjusting body mass for measurement error with invalid validation data.
We propose a new method for using validation data to correct self-reported weight and height in surveys that do not measure respondents. The standard correction in prior research regresses actual measures on reported values using an external validation dataset, and then uses the estimated coefficients to predict actual measures in the primary dataset. This approach requires the strong assumptio...
متن کاملInvalid measurement validity.
Concurrence looks at how a measure relates to a gold standard. If, as frequently occurs, there isn’t one, the next best is the correlation with other established measures. This assumes that the latter are themselves valid, which may not be true, and risks stifling innovation, a source of concern if a paper is criticized on this ground. More straightforwardly, concurrence also means that a test ...
متن کاملTESTING FOR AUTOCORRELATION IN UNEQUALLY REPLICATED FUNCTIONAL MEASUREMENT ERROR MODELS
In the ordinary linear models, regressing the residuals against lagged values has been suggested as an approach to test the hypothesis of zero autocorrelation among residuals. In this paper we extend these results to the both equally and unequally replicated functionally measurement error models. We consider the equally and unequally replicated cases separately, because in the first case the re...
متن کاملValidation of the measurement model concept for error structure identification
The development of different forms of measurement models for impedance has allowed examination of key assumptions on which the use of such models to assess error structure are based. The stochastic error structures obtained using the transfer-function and Voigt measurement models were identical, even when non-stationary phenomena caused some of the data to be inconsistent with the Kramers–Kroni...
متن کاملAdjusting effect estimates for unmeasured confounding with validation data using propensity score calibration.
Often, data on important confounders are not available in cohort studies. Sensitivity analyses based on the relation of single, but not multiple, unmeasured confounders with an exposure of interest in a separate validation study have been proposed. In this paper, the authors controlled for measured confounding in the main cohort using propensity scores (PS's) and addressed unmeasured confoundin...
