We describe some simple techniques for investigating 2 key assumptions of the self-controlled
case series (SCCS) method, namely, that events do not influence subsequent exposures
and that events do not influence the length of observation periods. For each assumption,
we propose some simple tests based on the standard SCCS model, along with associated
graphical displays. The methods also enable the user to investigate the robustness
of the results obtained using the standard SCCS model to failure of assumptions. The
proposed methods are investigated by simulations and applied to data on measles, mumps
and rubella vaccine, and antipsychotics. |
