Example data with binary outcomes

Description

A simulated data set containing 7994 observations, 5 continuous covariates and 100 providers.

Usage

data(ExampleDataBinary)

Format

A list containing the following elements:

Y

a vector representing binary outcomes with 0 or 1. Generated from a Bernoulli distribution with the probability of success (\boldsymbol{\mu}), which is determined by applying the logistic function to the linear combination of provider effects and covariates.

ID

a vector representing identifier for each provider. The number of individuals per provider is generated from a Poisson distribution with mean 80, with a minimum value of 11.

Z

a data frame containing 5 continuous variables. Generated from a multivariate normal distribution, where the mean is calculated as (\gamma_i - \mu_{\gamma}) \cdot \rho / \sigma_{\gamma} with \mu_{\gamma} = \log(4/11) and \sigma_{\gamma} = 0.4, and the correlation between covariates and provider effects is 0.1.
