Chi-square test was used to evaluate the qualitative variables, and
McNemar's test was used for comparing the results of different levels of TSH in several times.
For our analyses related to the hypotheses, we performed a 1:1 matched pairs analysis using the mcc command for
McNemar's test. (36) These analyses focused on "discordant" pairs where auditors giving a Black cue received a different response than control auditors.
McNemar's test for symmetry was not significant (p=0.285), which suggests that the rates of positivity between the two tests (25% v.
Paired t-tests were used to evaluate numerical data, and
McNemar's test was employed to evaluate classification data.
McNemar's test and the paired t-test were used to compare two groups (Penepin group and EpiPen group).
McNemar's test was used to compare nominal variables between two dependent groups.
The clinico-histological and histological-immunological concordance was tested using
McNemar's test of significance.
Categorical variables were compared using
McNemar's test, Fisher's exact test, or a chi-square test.
The shift in intention between stage 1 and stage 3 was then measured using
McNemar's test and following hypotheses were formulated:
In terms of accuracy, groups A and B showed a statistically significant difference (P < 0 05), as revealed using
McNemar's test. Group A was better than group B.
Cohen's kappa coefficients were calculated to estimate the agreement among the results of the CTD screen and the other three autoantibody assays, and
McNemar's test was also conducted.
