Correlated binomial variates: properties of estimator of intraclass correlation and its effect on sample size calculation.

In group randomized studies, the sample size calculations are complicated by within group (worksite, community, etc.) correlation. We compare by simulation the moment method and the more standard ANOVA method of estimating the intraclass correlation. We find the former is less biased for a small to moderate number of clusters but the difference disappears when the appropriate degree of freedom is used for the ANOVA estimator. We propose a simulation approach for sample size determination and illustrate it with an example.

Some applications of categorical data analysis to epidemiological studies.

Several examples of categorized data from epidemiological studies are analyzed to illustrate that more informative analysis than tests of independence can be performed by fitting models. All of the analyses fit into a unified conceptual framework that can be performed by weighted least squares. The methods presented show how to calculate point estimate of parameters, asymptotic variances, and asymptotically valid chi 2 tests. The examples presented are analysis of relative risks estimated from several 2 x 2 tables, analysis of selected features of life tables, construction of synthetic life tables from cross-sectional studies, and analysis of dose-response curves.

Analysis of data from multiclinic experiments.

The analysis of data from multiclinic experiments is put in the framework of a mixed model in which the treatment effects are assumed to be fixed, and clinic and clinic by treatment effects are assumed to be random. The analysis in the unbalanced case is developed under the usual mixed model assumptions. The maximum likelihood estimates and likelihood ratio tests of the parameters are derived following the approach of Hemmerle and Hartley (1973). The T2 test is shown to be asymptotically equivalent to the analysis of variance F test in the balanced case. The distribution of the test statistic in the case of proportional cell frequencies is also discussed. Some investigation is made of the distribution of the test statistic by applying the method of Box (1954).
