meningitis | R Documentation |
The dataset meningitis is from a brief outbreak of meningococcal disease at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign campus in the years 1991 and 1992. The dataset is available in the LogXact software and also analyzed in Imrey et al. (1996). Maiti and Pradhan (2009) fitted a logistic regression using the model CaseCntrl ~ Numill + Numsleep + Smoke + Set + Reftime.
