چکیده

Three nonlinear count models, Poisson R.egression (PR), Negative Binomial Regression (NBR), and Generalized Poisson Regression (GPR) are used for assessing the effects of risk factors on agricultural injuries from farm injury data. A sample of 1,322 respondents who participated in the farm safety/injury baseline survey in nine rural counties in Alabama and Mississippi, aged 18 years and older are considered for analysis. The dispersion parameter estimates and their standard errors for GPR models were consistently smaller than that of NBR models. Estimated dispersion parameters in the NBR and GPR models were positive and significantly different from zero. Estimated goodness-of-fit measures showed that GPR models outperformed the NBR and PR models.

Estimation of Count Data using Bivariate Negative Binomial Regression Models

Abstract Negative binomial regression model (NBR) is a popular approach for modeling overdispersed count data with covariates. Several parameterizations have been performed for NBR, and the two well-known models, negative binomial-1 regression model (NBR-1) and negative binomial-2 regression model (NBR-2), have been applied. Another parameterization of NBR is negative binomial-P regression mode...

کاربرد مدل رگرسیون پواسنی تعمیم یافته در تحلیل داده‌های باروری زنان روستایی استان فارس

Background & objectives: statistical modeling explicates the observed changes in data by means of mathematics equations. In cases that dependent variable is count, Poisson model is applied. If Poisson model is not applicable in a specific situation, it is better to apply the generalized Poisson model. So, our emphasis in this study is to notice the data structure, introducing the generalized Po...
