Frequentist performance of Bayesian confidence intervals for comparing proportions in 2 x 2 contingency tables.
This article investigates the performance, in a frequentist sense, of Bayesian confidence intervals (CIs) for the difference of proportions, relative risk, and odds ratio in 2 x 2 contingency tables. We consider beta priors, logit-normal priors, and related correlated priors for the two binomial parameters. The goal was to analyze whether certain settings for prior parameters tend to provide go...
متن کاملAn 'unconditional-like' structure for the conditional estimator of odds ratio from 2 x 2 tables.
In the estimation of the odds ratio (OR), the conditional maximum-likelihood estimate (cMLE) is preferred to the more readily computed unconditional one (uMLE). However, the exact cMLE does not have a closed form to help divine it from the uMLE or to understand in what circumstances the difference between the two is appreciable. Here, the cMLE is shown to have the same 'ratio of cross-products'...
متن کاملThe analysis of stratified 2 x 2 contingency tables.
We consider the problem of testing for independence against the consistent superiority of one treatment over another when the response variable is binary and is compared across two treatments in each of several strata. Specifically, we consider the randomized clinical trial setting. A number of issues arise in this context. First, should tables be combined if there are small or zero margins? Se...
متن کاملOn logit confidence intervals for the odds ratio with small samples.
Unless the true association is very strong, simple large-sample confidence intervals for the odds ratio based on the delta method perform well even for small samples. Such intervals include the Woolf logit interval and the related Gart interval based on adding .5 before computing the log odds ratio estimate and its standard error. The Gart interval smooths the observed counts toward the model o...
متن کاملGeneralized Measure of Departure from No Three-Factor Interaction Model for 2 x 2 x K Contingency Tables
For 2 × 2 × K contingency tables, Tomizawa considered a Shannon entropy type measure to represent the degree of departure from a log-linear model of no three-factor interaction (the NOTFI model). This paper proposes a generalization of Tomizawa’s measure for 2 × 2 × K tables. The measure proposed is expressed by using Patil-Taillie diversity index or Cressie-Read power-divergence. A special cas...
