Nonparametric Statistical Methods For Complete and Censored Data - 9780367394950

CRC Press

Balancing the \""cookbook\"" approach of some texts with the mathematical approach of others, this book introduces and develops some of the commonly used techniques of nonparametric statistics that are particularly important in biostatistics and the social sciences. The presentation is organized in relation to one, two, and multi-sample problems and includes discussions on correlation and regression methods and clinical equivalence with binary data. To make the material more accessible and practical, the authors use SAS to illustrate the calculations and present the mathematical details in appendices within each chapter. To help with problem solving, SAS code is presented both within the book and on the Internet. > \nBalancing the \""cookbook\"" approach of some texts with the more mathematical approach of others, Nonparametric Statistical Methods for Complete and Censored Data introduces commonly used non-parametric methods for complete data and extends those methods to right censore.
