A simple form of measurement error model for explanatory variables is studied incorporating classical and Berkson cases as particular forms, and allowing for either additive or multiplicative errors. The work is motivated by epidemiological problems, and therefore consideration is given not only to

Biomedical studies often measure variables with error. Examples in the literature include investigation of the association between the change in some outcome variable (blood pressure, cholesterol level etc.) and a set of explanatory variables (age, smoking status etc.). Typically, one fits linear re
In medical research, a situation commonly arises where new variables are calculated from a common set of directly measured variables. When the directly measured variables each contain an error component, the relationship between the observed calculated variables can often be distorted. A source of t
