摘要:
SUMMARYStatistics is seen as being primarily concerned with the theory and practice of the matching of theory to data by research workers. Swings between data‐heavy and model‐heavy views of statistics are discussed, and also aspects which inhibit communication between statisticians and scientists or technologists, especially the insufficient attention given by statisticians to the problems of combining information from many data sets. Several obstacles to better communication by statisticians are discussed, and also how the current gap between them and scientists/technologists might be bridged.

摘要:
SUMMARYAspects of the England and Wales cancer registration system are discussed in the light of biases and other artefacts which can arise from them. Some are specific to England and Wales data, but many apply to cancer registration data generally. Considerations relevant to interpretation of the data are: the effects of clinical diagnostic practice; the completeness and accuracy of registry data collection; new registrations, deletions and alterations made to the file of registrations after data for a publication have been extracted; unintended duplication of registrations and the effects of rules intended to prevent this; the ways in which use is made of death certificates in cancer registration; the geographic coverage of the individual registries within the national scheme; inaccuracies in population denominators; differences between the definition of place of residence used for cancer registration and that used for population estimates; the coding systems used for the data; and errors. Several of the artefacts identified are of relatively small moment overall but of considerable importance for some sub‐group analyses, particularly geographic analyses within England and Wales. Further specification is needed of such effects in England and Wales and other registry data sets.

摘要:
SUMMARYThe problem of adjusting for the effect of sample design in parametric estimation is examined and a general model‐based approach to parametric inference with sample survey data is proposed. This approach includes, as a special case, recent results on model‐based regression estimation with sample survey data.

摘要:
SUMMARYYearly temperature data from Munich during 1781–1984 are analysed by time series methods. We concentrate on three variables, namely the summer temperature sum, the winter negative temperature sum, and the yearly mean. The main object of this paper is to show that each of the three series can be simply represented by a low‐order polynomial trend plus a residual series which does not significantly differ from a pure random series. Further, the residual summer and winter series do not show significant interdependencies. Thus, the search for hidden periodicities within the time interval of 204 years fails and no prediction rules can be established from the summer to the winter data or vice versa.The time series methods applied include trend removal, data splitting and simultaneous statistical inference.
