Dear listers,
I have a problem in giving inputs to the 'deming'
command in stata. From a
paper by "Cornbleet, PJ and Gochman, N (1979).
Incorrect least squares
regression coefficients in method-comparison analysis,
Clinical Chemistry
25, 432-438", I understand that they used a parameter
called 'lambda', which
is the ratio of the within-individual variance of the
indepdent variable and
the within-individual variance of the dependent
variable. This parameter can
be estimated from repeated measurements of depdent and
indepdent variables.
My question is, do the the values of cv1 and cv2 in
stata are based on the
values of var1 and var2? if so, how is it related to
the 'lambda' parameter
of the above stated paper? If such repeat measurements
not available, what
value should be used for inputting to cv1 and cv2?
thanks in advance
