On Wed, 25 Oct 2000, Wolfgang Rolke asked:
I am wondering how they find the Sampling error of +/-4% pts. The usual
estimate for the standard error of a binomial would be (for Bush)
SQRT(0.46*(1-0.46)/769) = 0.01797
The error in a 95% CI would then be 1.96*0.01797 = 3.5%
and in a 99%
Wolfgang,
Even if we use a binomial prob. value of 0.5 (under null hypothesis), we will
get 3.5% error at 95% CI. Maybe, they are rounding up to 4%!

I have to pool/summarize the results of some pharmacoeconomic trials.
In most of the trials, the results are reportet in this way:
(1)Days of hospitalization (treatm. vs. contr.)
(2)Costs of treatment (treatm. vs. control).
The only statistical information given is (p-value from the testing of
A Poisson arrival process implies that the
inter-arrival times are independent, and identically exponentially
distributed.
It IS a characteristic of the exponential distribution
that the are more small values than large ones.
The expected number of arrivals in any period of length t is

I have a question regarding basic statistics, and while it might seem
foolish to some of you, I would greatly appreciate any help:
Suppose a variable can assume two values, success ( 1, probability p ) or
failure ( 0, probability 1-p ). If n trials are independent and the
probability of success
p is not a variable, it is a parameter. Cheers. Siddeek
