โœฆ Synopsis


In dietary epidemiology, the key nutrient variables are often expressed in the quintile scale. The nutrients are often measured with error and it is of interest to consider estimates of relative risk for exposures in the quintile scale corrected for measurement error. In this paper, I propose a measurement error model that relates diet record (true) nutrient values to food frequency (noisy) nutrient values when expressed in the quintile scale. I estimate this measurement error model from validation study data and then apply it to obtain corrected estimates of breast cancer risk in relation to intake of fat and alcohol with use of data from the Nurses' Health Study.

Let i denote the diet record (DR) (true) exposure and j denote the food frequency (FFQ) (observed) exposure, where i, j = 1, . . . , 5 . If x is a (p x 1) vector of covariates measured without

In this paper we consider measurement error models when the observed random vectors are independent and have mean vector and covariance matrix changing with each observation. The asymptotic behavior of the sample mean vector and the sample covariance matrix are studied for such models. Using the der

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

Statistical methodology is presented for the statistical analysis of non-linear measurement error models. Our approach is to provide adjustments for the usual maximum likelihood estimators, their standard errors and associated significance tests in order to account for the presence of measurement er
