Striking a balance between theory, application, and programming,
Biostatistics in Public Health Using STATA is a user-friendly guide
to applied statistical analysis in public health using STATA
version 14. The book supplies public health practitioners and
students with the opportunity to gain expertise in the application
of statistics in epidemiologic studies. The book shares the
authors' insights gathered through decades of collective experience
teaching in the academic programs of biostatistics and
epidemiology. Maintaining a focus on the application of statistics
in public health, it facilitates a clear understanding of the basic
commands of STATA for reading and saving databases. The book
includes coverage of data description, graph construction,
significance tests, linear regression models, analysis of variance,
categorical data analysis, logistic regression model, poisson
regression model, survival analysis, analysis of correlated data,
and advanced programming in STATA. Each chapter is based on one or
more research problems linked to public health. Additionally, every
chapter includes exercise sets for practicing concepts and exercise
solutions for self or group study. Several examples are presented
that illustrate the applications of the statistical method in the
health sciences using epidemiologic study designs. Presenting
high-level statistics in an accessible manner across research
fields in public health, this book is suitable for use as a
textbook for biostatistics and epidemiology courses or for
consulting the statistical applications in public health. For
readers new to STATA, the first three chapters should be read
sequentially, as they form the basis of an introductory course to
this software.
