Estimation of dose-response curves in various research areas of agriculture will be demonstrated using the SAS software system. The topics addressed will include: appropriate dose-response models; fixed and random model components; discrete versus continuous responses; and statistical inferences based on parameter estimates, functions of parameter estimates, and contrasts of parameter estimates. Examples shown will be taken from a variety of experimental situations. During the demonstration, the similarities and differences between some SAS procedures, particularly, NLIN and NLMIXED, as well as some commonly encountered estimation problems, will be discussed. |
