Matrix Methods for Estimating Odds Ratios with Misclassified Exposure Data: Extensions and Comparisons
Summary. Misclassification of exposure variables is a common problem in epidemiologic studies. This paper compares the matrix method (Barren, 1977, Biometrics 33 , 414–418; Greenland, 1988a, Statistics in Medicine 7 , 745–757) and the inverse matrix method (Marshall, 1990, Journal of Clinical Epidem...
