Jeffreys Interval for One-Sample Proportion with SAS/STAT Software
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper introduces Jeffreys interval for one-sample proportion using SAS® software. It compares the credible interval from a Bayesian approach with the confidence interval from a frequentist approach. Different ways to calculate the Jeffreys interval are presented using PROC FREQ, the QUANTILE function, a SAS program of random walk Metropolis sampler, and PROC MCMC.

Improving interval estimation of binomial proportions
In this paper, we propose one new confidence interval for the binomial proportion; our interval is based on the Edgeworth expansion of a logit transformation of the sample proportion. We provide theoretical justification for the proposed interval and also compare the finite-sample performance of the proposed interval with the three best existing intervals-the Wilson interval, the Agresti-Coull ...
متن کاملRobust Standard Error Estimate for Cluster Sampling Data: A SAS/IML Macro Procedure for Logistic Regression with Huberization
Data sets with cluster structure are very common in practical business and research, one has to take into account the intra-cluster correlation in data analysis. This paper systematically discusses the Huber/White standard error estimate for cluster sampling data in logistic regression, and presents a user-friendly SAS/IML macro procedure which can automatically fit logistic model, calculate ro...
متن کاملAttributable Risk Estimation Using Sas/stat Software
In epidemiologic studies devot~d to .the analysis of the relationship between an exposure characteristic and a disease the attributable risk constitutes an interesting epidemiologic risk measure. It can be interpreted as the proportion of cases of disease due to the exposure under study among all cases of disease in the study population. Thus, it indicates the impact of the exposure factor on t...
متن کاملSimplifying the Analysis of Complex Survey Data Using the SAS
Large sample-based surveys often have complex sample designs, with design features including stratification, clustering, multi-stage sampling, and unequal probability of selection of observations. The calculation of the associated sampling weights often involves nonresponse adjustments and raking to external control totals. The analysis usually includes descriptive statistics such as frequencie...
