| Summary, etc |
A one-stop guide for public health students and practitioners learning the applications of classical regression models in epidemiology<br/><br/>This book is written for public health professionals and students interested in applying regression models in the field of epidemiology. The academic material is usually covered in public health courses including (i) Applied Regression Analysis, (ii) Advanced Epidemiology, and (iii) Statistical Computing. The book is composed of 13 chapters, including an introduction chapter that covers basic concepts of statistics and probability. Among the topics covered are linear regression model, polynomial regression model, weighted least squares, methods for selecting the best regression equation, and generalized linear models and their applications to different epidemiological study designs. An example is provided in each chapter that applies the theoretical aspects presented in that chapter. In addition, exercises are included and the final chapter is devoted to the solutions of these academic exercises with answers in all of the major statistical software packages, including STATA, SAS, SPSS, and R. It is assumed that readers of this book have a basic course in biostatistics, epidemiology, and introductory calculus. The book will be of interest to anyone looking to understand the statistical fundamentals to support quantitative research in public health.<br/><br/>In addition, this book:<br/><br/>• Is based on the authors’ course notes from 20 years teaching regression modeling in public health courses<br/><br/>• Provides exercises at the end of each chapter<br/><br/>• Contains a solutions chapter with answers in STATA, SAS, SPSS, and R<br/><br/>• Provides real-world public health applications of the theoretical aspects contained in the chapters<br/><br/>Applications of Regression Models in Epidemiology is a reference for graduate students in public health and public health practitioners.<br/> |
