A Simulation Study of the Analysis of Sets of 2 × 2 Contingency Tables under Cluster Sampling: Estimation of a Common Odds Ratio
聚类抽样下多组二乘二列联表共同优势比估计的模拟研究
This article presents the results of a simulation study of the estimation of a common odds ratio in multiple-contingency tables when the data are correlated within clusters. The correlation is modeled by the beta-binomial distribution. The three objectives of the study were to determine (a) the variances, biases, and relative efficiencies of the beta-binomial maximum likelihood estimator (MLE), the binomial MLE, and the Mantel-Haenszel estimator of the common odds ratio; (b)…
