Bayesian Analysis and Design for Joint Modeling of Two Binary Responses with Misclassification
Stamey, James D.; Beavers, Daniel P.; Sherr, Michael E.
Sociological Methods & Research, v46 n4 p772-792 Nov 2017
Survey data are often subject to various types of errors such as misclassification. In this article, we consider a model where interest is simultaneously in two correlated response variables and one is potentially subject to misclassification. A motivating example of a recent study of the impact of a sexual education course for adolescents is considered. A simulation-based sample size determination scheme is applied to illustrate the impact of misclassification on power and bias for the parameters of interest.
