Hybrid Resampling Methods for Confidence Intervals
This paper considers the problem of constructing confidence intervals for a single parameter θ in a multiparameter or nonparametric family. Hybrid resampling methods, which “hybridize” the essential features of bootstrap and exact methods, are proposed and developed for both parametric and nonparametric situations. In particular, we apply such methods to construct confidence regions, whose cove...
متن کاملA SAS® Macro to Calculate Exact Confidence Intervals for the Difference of Two Proportions
When comparing two proportions, it is often desirable to have more information than simply the p-value from a hypothesis test. The SAS® procedure FREQ provides both an approximate and an exact p-value, as well as an approximate confidence interval for the ratio of the two proportions. Calculation of the difference of two proportions and any confidence interval for this difference, however, must...

متن کاملStatistics in Question SHEILA M GORE ASSESSING METHODS - CONFIDENCE INTERVALS
Doctors understand so well the importance of checking whether an observed outcome is within the bounds of chance variation that the first two of three pithy definitions of god are as follows: the patient's definition is that the doctor is god, the doctor's definition of god is "p <0 05," while the statistician.... Careful reporting does not end at significance testing, especially when the autho...
متن کاملBootstrap Confidence Intervals for Smoothing Splines and Their Comparison to Bayesian Confidence Intervals
We construct bootstrap confidence intervals for smoothing spline and smoothing spline ANOVA estimates based on Gaussian data, and penalized likelihood smoothing spline estimates based on data from exponential families. Several variations of bootstrap confidence intervals are considered and compared. We find that the commonly used bootstrap percentile intervals are inferior to the T intervals an...
