2 0.81125891 141 andrew gelman stats-2010-07-12-Dispute over counts of child deaths in Iraq due to sanctions
Introduction: Mike Spagat writes: Here is yet another debunking article I’ve written, this one in the latest issue of Significance. It shows the Lancet once again publishing spectacularly wrong information that has misinformed public discussion on a crucial issue with ongoing reverberations. For example, there is Tony Blair’s recent justification for the Iraq war offered in front of the Chilcot Inquiry in the UK quoted at the beginning of the paper. I haven’t had a chance to look at this one, but here’s a link to some related Spagat work.
3 0.70845044 1331 andrew gelman stats-2012-05-19-Question 9 of my final exam for Design and Analysis of Sample Surveys
Introduction: 9. Out of a population of 100 medical records, 40 are randomly sampled and then audited. 10 out of the 40 audits reveal fraud. From this information, give an estimate, standard error, and 95% confidence interval for the proportion of audits in the population with fraud. Solution to question 8 From yesterday : 8. Which of the following statements accurately characterize the National Election Studies? (Indicate all that apply.) (a) The NES began in 1960. (b) Since 1980, the NES has mostly relied on telephone interviews. (c) The NES typically has a sample size of about 1000–2000 people. (d) The NES uses a sampling design that ensures they get respondents from all fifty states and D.C. Solution: c. This is a purely factual question, not much to say here.
4 0.68162519 1879 andrew gelman stats-2013-06-01-Benford’s law and addresses
Introduction: One example we give to illustrate Benford’s law is the first digits of addresses. Javier Marquez Pena had a survey and, just for laffs, he looked the distribution of first digits: Cool—it really works! P.S. The y-axis shouldn’t go below zero, and I’d much prefer an L-type graphics box (par(bty=”l”)) rather than the square, but those are familiar problems with R defaults.
Introduction: Mike Spagat points to this interview , which, he writes, covers themes that are discussed on the blog such as wrong ideas that don’t die, peer review and the statistics of conflict deaths. I agree. It’s good stuff. Here are some of the things that Spagat says (he’s being interviewed by Joel Wing): In fact, the standard excess-deaths concept leads to an interesting conundrum when combined with an interesting fact exposed in the next-to-latest Human Security Report ; in most countries child mortality rates decline during armed conflict (chapter 6). So if you believe the usual excess-death causality story then you’re forced to conclude that many conflicts actually save the lives of many children. Of course, the idea of wars savings lives is pretty hard to swallow. A much more sensible understanding is that there are a variety of factors that determine child deaths and that in many cases the factors that save the lives of children are stronger than the negative effects that confli
