- Summary:
- "Association Models in Epidemiology: Study Design, Modeling Strategies, and Analytic Methods provides detailed strategies in modeling analyses of epidemiologic data. It focuses on integrating epidemiologic principles with statistical modeling methods in such a way that the principles inform the choice of modeling strategy and covariate selection. Specific statistical models are tailored to analyze data collected from different epidemiologic study designs, i.e., data analysis by study design. The study designs highlighted in this book include cross-sectional, case-control, and cohort studies. The analytic strategies covered emphasize model specification, effect estimation, control of confounding, and assessment of modification and mediation effects. Detailed modeling techniques include logistic regression, conditional logistic regression, log-binomial regression, Cox proportional hazards, Poisson regression, negative binomial regression, path analytic model, and propensity-score analysis. Features: Modeling of epidemiologic data by study design Integration of epidemiologic principles with biostatistics Development of analytic strategies for each study design Use of the directed acyclic graph (DAG) in model specification Modelling assumptions and alternatives Step-by-step modeling approach using SAS® software Exercises in each chapter to enable use as a course text or for self-study The textbook is primarily aimed at graduate students in epidemiology taking a course on advanced methods in epidemiology. It has been developed from a course taught by the author for many years at the University of Maryland, but it could also be used for self-study. It will also be useful as a reference for epidemiologists who need to perform valid and accurate analyses independently as part of their jobs"--
