Association and Simpson conversion in 2 × 2 × 2 contingency tables

چکیده
We study a generalisation of Simpson reversal (also known as Simpson's paradox or the Yule-Simpson effect) to $2 \times 2 2$ contingency tables and characterise cases for which it can cannot occur with two combinatorial-geometric lemmas. also present conjecture based on some computational experiments expected likelihood such events.

Effect Sizes for 2×2 Contingency Tables
Sample size calculations are an important part of research to balance the use of resources and to avoid undue harm to participants. Effect sizes are an integral part of these calculations and meaningful values are often unknown to the researcher. General recommendations for effect sizes have been proposed for several commonly used statistical procedures. For the analysis of 2×2 tables, recommen...
متن کاملMeta-analysis Methods for 2 2 Contingency Tables
Methods for combining 2×2 contingency tables from multiple studies are reviewed and new methods are proposed. Methods for combining 2×2 contingency tables from multiple studies are presented in the context of three different statistical models: the constant coefficient model, the varying coefficient model, and the random coefficient model. The constant coefficient confidence intervals have unac...
متن کاملThe analysis of stratified 2 x 2 contingency tables.
We consider the problem of testing for independence against the consistent superiority of one treatment over another when the response variable is binary and is compared across two treatments in each of several strata. Specifically, we consider the randomized clinical trial setting. A number of issues arise in this context. First, should tables be combined if there are small or zero margins? Se...

متن کامل3 Algebraic geometry of 2 × 2 contingency tables
Contingency tables represent the joint distribution of categorical variables. In this chapter we use modern algebraic geometry to update the geometric representation of 2 × 2 contingency tables first explored in (Fienberg 1968) and (Fienberg and Gilbert 1970). Then we use this geometry for a series of new ends including various characterizations of the joint distribution in terms of combination...
