A new approach that extends the classical Clopper-Pearson procedure is proposed for the estimation of the (1 ร a)% confidence interval of a proportion with over-dispersion. Over-dispersion occurs when a proportion of interest shows more variation (variance inflation) than predicted by the binomial d
An experiment to assess the efficacy of a particular treatment or process often produces dichotomous responses, either favourable or unfavourable. When we administer the treatment on two occasions to the same subjects, we often use McNemar's test to investigate the hypothesis of no difference in the
