erpcp

Matched pairs of a welder and a control, matching for age and smoking. The values are DNA elution rates through polycarbonate filters with proteinase K (or erpcp). Data are originally from Werfel et al. (1998) and were used as an example in Rosenbaum (2007). Data are used to illustrate the senmv function in the sensitivitymv package.

datasets

The package performs a sensitivity analysis in an observational study using an M-statistic, for instance, the mean. The main function in the package is senmv(), but amplify() and truncatedP() are also useful. The method is developed in Rosenbaum Biometrics, 2007, 63, 456-464, <doi:10.1111/j.1541-0420.2006.00717.x>.
