3mile.txt: 1 facet fixed effects analysis: Stress at Three Mile Island |
This is for 32-bit Facets 3.87. Here is Help for 64-bit Facets 4
After the nuclear accident at Three Mile Island in Spring 1979, mothers in the area were surveyed four times to determine their levels of stress. 115 mothers living within 5 miles of the plant were assigned to group LT5, another 152 mothers living between 5 and 10 miles away were assigned to group GT5. Data are from Fienberg SE, Bromet EJ, Follmann D, Lambert D, May SM 1985. Longitudinal analysis of categorical epidemiological data. Environmental Health Perspectives, 63, 241-248.
For this analysis, each mother at each time point is regarded as a random example of the fixed stress effect of one of the two groups. The analysis estimates the mean stress level of each group of mothers at each time point by averaging their stress levels as recorded in their ratings.
A better analytical technique is in the Arithmetic Test example.
