Robust regression using probabilistically linked data

Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews Computational Statistics · 2022 · 7 citations

Abstract There is growing interest in a data integration approach to survey sampling, particularly where population registers are linked for sampling and subsequent analysis. The reason for doing this is simple: it is only by linking the same individuals in the different sources that it becomes possible to create a data set suitable for analysis. But data linkage is not error free. Many linkages are nondeterministic, based on how likely a linking decision corresponds to a correct match, that is,…

Workforce Diversity and disparities in wait time and retention among opioid treatment programs

Substance Abuse Treatment Prevention and Policy · 2022-11-16 · 6 citations

BACKGROUND: Workforce diversity is a key strategy to improve treatment engagement among members of racial and ethnic minority groups. In this study, we seek to determine whether workforce diversity plays a role in reducing racial and ethnic differences in wait time to treatment entry and retention in different types of opioid use disorder treatment programs. METHODS: We conducted comparative and predictive analysis in a subsample of outpatient opioid treatment programs (OTPs), who completed acce…

Examining the impacts of public transit on healthy aging through a natural experiment: study protocols and lessons learned from the Active El Paso project

Frontiers in Public Health · 2023-07-25 · 5 citations

This paper describes protocols and experiences from a seven-year natural-experiment study in El Paso, Texas, a border city of predominantly Latino/Hispanic population. The study focuses on how Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) impacts physical activity and thus plays a role in alleviating obesity and related chronic diseases that impact healthy aging. Our protocols describe a longitudinal and case-comparison study, which compared residents exposed to new BRT stations with those who were not. This paper al…
