Quantitative Methods in Population Health: Extensions of Ordinary Regression by Palta, Mari/ Palta [Hardcover]
A user's guide to advanced statistical techniques for nonstatisticians The study of population health often involves the use of observational data from existing data sets, complex survey designs and longitudinal follow-up. Ordinary regression analysis, familiar to most researchers and practitioners is inadequate for analyzing such data and answering important questions about the relationship of risk factors to health. Nonstatisticians such as epidemiologists and health services researchers require a working knowledge of the sophisticated modeling techniques used by professional statisticians.
