BACKGROUND Several studies have shown that early cannabis use is correlated with poor educational performance including high school drop-out. The predominant explanation for this relationship is that cannabis use causes disengagement from education. Another explanation is that the association between early cannabis use and educational attainment is not causal, but the result of overlapping risk...
The purpose was to test the reliability of short samples of parent/child interaction for use in single-subject research. Four variable pairs of mother/child behaviour were coded for seven mother/child play sessions. Each session lasted 20 min and 18 min of the session was behaviourally coded using frame-by-frame analysis. The co-occurrence of the mother/child behaviours within a given time wind...
OBJECTIVES We investigated the possible relationship between being shot in an assault and possession of a gun at the time. METHODS We enrolled 677 case participants that had been shot in an assault and 684 population-based control participants within Philadelphia, PA, from 2003 to 2006. We adjusted odds ratios for confounding variables. RESULTS After adjustment, individuals in possession of...
We examined the associations between parental educational/occupational levels and cognitive performance in Spanish adolescents. Cognitive performance was measured by a validated Scholar Aptitudes test in 2,162 participants. Parental educational and occupational levels were positively associated with all specific cognitive abilities and the overall score (p<001 to .04). The odds ratios of hav...
We assessed the risk of preterm birth according to the mother's place of origin in the context of a free and universal healthcare system. We analysed 75,292 newborn infants born between 2008-2011 in Alicante (Spain). The outcomes were: 1) very preterm (gestational age ≤ 32 weeks) and 2) moderate-to-late preterm (gestational age 33-37 weeks). Other variables: infant's gender, maternal age and or...
When a study outcome is rare in all strata used for an analysis, the odds ratio estimate of causal effects will approximate the risk ratio; therefore, odds ratios from most case-control studies can be interpreted as risk ratios. However, if a study outcome is common, the odds ratio will be further from 1 than the risk ratio. There is debate regarding the merits of risk ratios compared with odds...
BACKGROUND Over time, adaptive Gaussian Hermite quadrature (QUAD) has become the preferred method for estimating generalized linear mixed models with binary outcomes. However, penalized quasi-likelihood (PQL) is still used frequently. In this work, we systematically evaluated whether matching results from PQL and QUAD indicate less bias in estimated regression coefficients and variance paramete...
OBJECTIVES To examine the association between poorer performance on concurrent walking and reaction time and recurrent falls. DESIGN Cross-sectional analysis. SETTING Community. PARTICIPANTS Three hundred seventy-seven older community-dwelling adults (mean age+/-standard deviation 78+/-3). MEASUREMENTS Reaction times on push-button and visual-spatial decision tasks were assessed while s...
In this article, we propose a generalized estimating equations (GEE) approach for correlated ordinal or nominal multinomial responses using a local odds ratios parameterization. Our motivation lies upon observing that: (i) modeling the dependence between correlated multinomial responses via the local odds ratios is meaningful both for ordinal and nominal response scales and (ii) ordinary GEE me...
