Introduction to the statistical analysis of categorical data

From MaRDI portal





This book deals with two-way and multi-way contingency tables and multinomial models rather than hypotheses and thereby log-linear models. The Bonferroni procedure for simultaneous test situations has been adequately covered. First and higher order interactions between factors and hierarchical models have also been considered during the analysis of categorical data. The author also gives the treatment for the logit model in case of multi-factor contingency table with explanatory variables. The logistic regression model which reduces to exponential family has been widely covered. Estimation and testing of the parameters of this model are vividly explicated. Lastly the author covers the process of estimation and testing in case of row-column (RC) association models to assess dependencies. On the whole, the book is a good compendium to analyse categorical data depicted in the form of contingency tables.
