Product Description

Methods in Epidemiologic Research is a comprehensive textbook covering the key principles and methods used in epidemiologic research. It is written primarily for graduate students and researchers in epidemiology and public health.

Chapters 7 through 13 cover issues related to the design and execution of observational studies and controlled trials. Chapters 14 through 26 are devoted to methods used in the analysis of epidemiologic data, including extensive coverage of regression type models, procedures for dealing with clustered data, an introduction to Bayesian methods and dealing with spatial data. Chapters 27 through 30 cover infectious disease modelling, meta-analysis and ecologic studies. Extensive use is made of worked examples to demonstrate the principles being covered. All datasets used in the text are available from upei.ca/mer along with program files and additional sample problems.
