Regression analysis of count data. A special model for counting data is given by a Poisson regression model capturing the possible existing correlation among the hospitalization daily counting in each age class. The Poisson regression model is the most widely used methodology to analyze count data. Communicating the results of an analysis can be a challenge as at times there is not a clear picture of what is going on and one may see different results between a simple aggregate analysis and the results of a regression analysis. Different Poisson models are used in the analysis of the black sea bass catch count. Applied researcher in education or psychology might use. It was found For example, in social data analysis, Poisson regression models were used to assess the effects of parental and peer approval of smoking on adolescents' current level of smoking (Siddiqui et al., 1999). Network structure and innovation: The leveraging of a dual network as a distinctive relational capability. To analyze this data set, we introduce two Poisson regression models in the presence or absence of a random factor which captures the correlation between the repeated measures for the same day and the presence of extra-Poisson variability for the data (see, for example, Albert, 1992; Achcar et al., 2008) . Specifically I think these types of regressions could work well as a substitute for factor analysis (as these techniques act to reduce the dimensionality of your data). Since the outcome variable “absenteeism” is a count variable, Poisson, Quasi-Poisson, Negative binomial and Zero inflated models are applied and compared on the basis of Log likelihood, AIC, regression coefficients and standard errors of the best fit. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors that affected mortality. Cambridge, England: Cambridge University Press. Fisher's exact test was used to compare categorical data between the 2 groups.
