Abstract

Statistical methodology is presented for the regression analysis of multiple events in the presence of random effects and measurement error. Omitted covariates are modeled as random effects. Our approach to parameter estimation and significance testing is to start with a naive model of semiparametric Poisson process regression, and then to adjust for random effects and any possible covariate measurement error. We illustrate the techniques with data from a randomized clinical trial for the prevention of recurrent skin tumors.
