Testing Statistical Hypotheses of Equivalence and Noninferiority
Abstract
While continuing to focus on methods of testing for two-sided equivalence, Testing Statistical Hypotheses of Equivalence and Noninferiority, Second Edition gives much more attention to noninferiority testing. It covers a spectrum of equivalence testing problems of both types, ranging from a one-sample problem with normally distributed observations

In the citing paper
“The non-inferiority margin was defined a priori (in the grant application) by a strict and small margin of tolerance for non-inferiority of 10%, or a ε of 0.36 [53], p.16 which, for example, represents a difference in change between the two conditions of no more than 10% on the primary outcome measure.”
In the citing paper
“The sample size was established a priori based on a power analysis for non-inferiority trials [53,54].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
