Comment: Analyzing propensity score matched count data.
We offer an explanation to the simulation result of Austin (2009) regarding rate ratios, and argue that unmatched analysis of propensity score matched count data results in conservative statistical inferences on the rate ratios.
متن کاملModeling zero-inflated count data with glmmTMB
Ecological phenomena are often measured in the form of count data. These data can be analyzed using generalized linear mixed models (GLMMs) when observations are correlated in ways that require random effects. However, count data are often zero-inflated, containing more zeros than would be expected from the standard error distributions used in GLMMs, e.g., parasite counts may be exactly zero fo...
متن کاملConsistent estimation of zero-inflated count models.
Applications of zero-inflated count data models have proliferated in health economics. However, zero-inflated Poisson or zero-inflated negative binomial maximum likelihood estimators are not robust to misspecification. This article proposes Poisson quasi-likelihood estimators as an alternative. These estimators are consistent in the presence of excess zeros without having to specify the full di...
متن کاملFitting Zero-Inflated Count Data Models by Using PROC GENMOD
Count data sometimes exhibit a greater proportion of zero counts than is consistent with the data having been generated by a simple Poisson or negative binomial process. For example, a preponderance of zero counts have been observed in data that record the number of automobile accidents per driver, the number of criminal acts per person, the number of derogatory credit reports per person, the n...
متن کاملPropensity Score Matching for Multiple Treatments Comparison in Observational Studies
A major limitation of making inference about treatment effect based on observational data from a non-randomized study designs is the treatment selection bias, in which the baseline characteristics of population under one treatment could dramatically differ from the other one. If not handle properly, such sources of heterogeneity will introduce confounding effect into causaleffect relationship a...
