{"product_id":"measurement-error-and-misclassification-in-paul-gustafson-9781584883357","title":"Measurement Error and Misclassification in Statistics and Epidemiology: Impacts and Bayesian Adjustments","description":"Mismeasurement of explanatory variables is a common hazard when using statistical modeling techniques, and particularly so in fields such as biostatistics and epidemiology where perceived risk factors cannot always be measured accurately. With this perspective and a focus on both continuous and categorical variables, Measurement Error and Misclassification in Statistics and Epidemiology: Impacts and Bayesian Adjustments examines the consequences and Bayesian remedies in those cases where the explanatory variable cannot be measured with precision. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe author explores both measurement error in continuous variables and misclassification in discrete variables, and shows how Bayesian methods might be used to allow for mismeasurement. A broad range of topics, from basic research to more complex concepts such as \"wrong-model\" fitting, make this a useful research work for practitioners, students and researchers in biostatistics and epidemiology.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paul Gustafson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1584883359\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781584883357\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e CRC Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/25\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.93lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.50h x 6.36w x 0.63d","brand":"Paul Gustafson","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44124908159231,"sku":"9781584883357","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0610b506-a78f-4d84-8e38-2328202bb7ba.jpg?v=1687439521","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/measurement-error-and-misclassification-in-paul-gustafson-9781584883357","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
