A Standard Error: Distinguishing Standard Deviation From Standard Error
A recent Perspective in Nature issued a call for more transparency in the reporting of preclinical research (1). Although this article focused primarily on experimental design, it emphasized the need for improved reporting in the scientific literature. Within the context of preclinical studies, there have been discussions regarding the appropriate reporting of standard error (SE) and standard d...
متن کاملConvergence rates and asymptotic standard errors for Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithms for Bayesian probit regression
Consider a probit regression problem in which Y1, . . . ,Yn are independent Bernoulli random variables such that Pr.Yi D1/DΦ.xT i β/ where xi is a p-dimensional vector of known covariates that are associated with Yi ,β is a p-dimensional vector of unknown regression coefficients and Φ. / denotes the standard normal distribution function. We study Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithms for explorin...
متن کاملA Monte Carlo Study to Evaluate the Robust Standard Error Feature in the PHREG procedure
Cox proportional hazards model is the most commonly used regression model to analyze survival data. The regression parameters in a Cox model can be estimated by maximizing the partial likelihood (Cox 1972, 1975). When the association is presented in the data due to matching design, recurrent events or multiple types of failure, the marginal approach can be used to adjust for association. In thi...
متن کاملStandard error as standard?
To the Editor: I am concerned about errors in simple statistical concepts in articles recently published in Circulation. First, I worry about the widespread use of the standard error of mean (SEM) to describe the variability of numerical data. Specifically, SEM was used in 30% of the clinical investigations and reports and in 76% of the basic science reports analyzed for this purpose (the first...
متن کامل10,000 Standard Solar Models: a Monte Carlo Simulation
We have evolved 10,000 solar models using 21 input parameters that are randomly drawn for each model from separate probability distributions for every parameter. We use the results of these models to determine the theoretical uncertainties in the predicted surface helium abundance, the profile of the sound speed versus radius, the profile of the density versus radius, the depth of the solar con...
