《定性数据分析:分类数据处理第二版》是作者Alan Agresti所著的一本专著,由University of Florida的作者在Gainesville, Florida发布。该书旨在为读者提供一种全面的方法来分析分类数据,特别关注广义线性模型(Generalized Linear Models, GLMs)及其在多变量响应情况下的扩展。GLMs是一种统计建模工具,广泛应用于社会科学、医学、商业等多个领域,因为它们能够处理离散和计数型的数据,这些数据通常表现为类别或等级。 书中详细讲解了如何处理各类分类数据,包括但不限于: 1. **描述性统计**:介绍如何对分类变量的基本特征进行概括,如频率、比例和分布表。 2. **卡方检验**:探讨卡方检验(Chi-square test)及其变种,用于评估类别之间的关联性和显著性。 3. **逻辑回归**:作为GLMs的基石,本书深入剖析逻辑回归模型及其在预测和分类任务中的应用。 4. **泊松回归**:适用于处理计数数据的模型,如事件发生率的估计。 5. **多元分类模型**:涉及多项式逻辑回归、Probit模型、Multinomial Logit (MNL) 和Nested Logit模型等多分类问题的处理方法。 6. **泊松混合模型**:当观测数据包含复杂结构时,如何结合概率模型与非参数模型进行分析。 7. **稳健性和模型选择**:讨论模型诊断和选择的重要性,以及如何处理模型过拟合和欠拟合问题。 8. **软件应用**:书中可能还包含了对常用统计软件(如R、SPSS等)在处理分类数据方面的实用指南。 版权方面,此书受1976年美国版权法保护,未经John Wiley & Sons, Inc.的书面许可或通过支付版权清除中心的费用,任何形式的复制、存储或传输都需得到明确授权。对于获取许可的请求,应直接联系出版社的许可部门。 对于本书,读者可以期待一个综合的框架,帮助他们理解和应用分类数据的高级分析技术,无论是初学者还是经验丰富的分析师都能从中受益。通过学习和实践,读者将能够有效地解决实际项目中关于分类数据的问题,提升数据分析的能力。

A valuable new edition of a standard reference "A 'must-have' book for anyone expecting to do research and/or applications in categorical data analysis." –Statistics in Medicine on Categorical Data Analysis, First Edition The use of statistical methods for categorical data has increased dramatically, particularly for applications in the biomedical and social sciences. Responding to new developments in the field as well as to the needs of a new generation of professionals and students, this new edition of the classic Categorical Data Analysis offers a comprehensive introduction to the most important methods for categorical data analysis. Designed for statisticians and biostatisticians as well as scientists and graduate students practicing statistics, Categorical Data Analysis, Second Edition summarizes the latest methods for univariate and correlated multivariate categorical responses. Readers will find a unified generalized linear models approach that connects logistic regression and Poisson and negative binomial regression for discrete data with normal regression for continuous data. Adding to the value in the new edition is coverage of: Three new chapters on methods for repeated measurement and other forms of clustered categorical data, including marginal models and associated generalized estimating equations (GEE) methods, and mixed models with random effects Stronger emphasis on logistic regression modeling of binary and multicategory data An appendix showing the use of SAS for conducting nearly all analyses in the book Prescriptions for how ordinal variables should be treated differently than nominal variables Discussion of exact small-sample procedures More than 100 analyses of real data sets to illustrate application of the methods, and more than 600 exercises An Instructor's Manual presenting detailed solutions to all the problems in the book is available from the Wiley editorial department.
