Statistical Methods Used in Assessing the Risk of Disease Near a Source of Possible Environmental Pollution: A Review
这篇综述回顾了处理超泊松变异性的统计扩展方法，以及当对可能影响的距离尺度知之甚少时如何选择源周围区域的方法，并简要讨论了制图技术及其在评估反应性假设中的相关性。
Extensions to take account of extra-Poisson variability, and to deal with the problem of how to choose an area around the source when little or nothing is known about the distance scale of any possible effect, are reviewed. Techniques for mapping are also briefly reviewed and their relevance to assessing reactive hypotheses is discussed
