Adjustment of Frequently Used Chi-square Procedures for the Effect of Site-to-Site Dependencies in the Analysis of Dental DataDepartment of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, The University of Western Ontario, London, Ontario, Canada N6A 5C1
Faculty of Dentistry, The University of Western Ontario, London, Ontario, Canada N6A 5C1 Donner and Banting (1988) presented a method of adjusting the standard chi-square test for the comparison of proportions when this procedure is applied to multiple-site dental data. The adjusted procedure allows for a comparison of two or more groups of subjects with respect to the prevalence over all sites of a specified characteristic, while taking site-to-site dependencies into account. In this paper, similar adjustments are presented for two other frequently used chi-square procedures, the chi-square test for linear trend and the Mantel-Haenszel test. Examples are given.
