Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Sample size formulae for estimating the true arithmetic or geometric mean of lognormal exposure distributions

Notes: Sumario: The purpose of this article is to present simple formulae for calculating the appoximate sample size required to estimate either the true arithmetic or true geometric mean of a lognormal distribution to within a specified accuracy with a specified level of confidence. These formulae should be of interest to the industrial hygienist involved in prospective or cross-sectional studies, or establishing exposure databases to be used to assess long-term changes in worker health statusRelated records: En: American Industrial Hygiene Association journal. - Akron, Ohio. - Vol. 56, nº 3, March 1995 ; p. 219-225Materia / lugar / evento: Higiene industrial Toxicología Enfermedades profesionales Epidemiología Modelos matemáticos Estimación Secondary titles: Título: American Industrial Hygiene Association journal
