Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Statisticians working in psychiatric epidemiology regularly confront a variety of problems that are rare in other branches of epidemiology. These problems range from the frequent absence of 'objective' biological markers and consequent reliance on informant and self-reports of considerable fallability, to the perhaps corresponding frequent use of multivariate statistical methods such as latent variable modelling. Equally, such difficulties can be regarded as challenges that offer the statistician a critical role. |
