Abstract:

Recently, dose-response analyses have been employed to evaluate public education campaigns that lacked design features required for the application of commonly used methods based on before/after comparisons and controlled dose-assignment. The data for such evaluations are likely to come from standard household surveys with the usual complexities of multiple stages, stratification and variable selection probabilities. Judkins, Zador and Nadimpalli (2002) reported on the performance of a jackknifed Jonckheere-Terpstra for testing monotone dose-response relationships among ordinal variables from complex surveys. The focus of this paper will be to extend these results to jackknifed association measures and a jackknifed Mantel-Haenzel test.
