摘要
Application of standard statistical procedures to site-specific data in periodontal research is invalid unless site-to-site dependencies are accounted for. In this paper, we present the adjustments required for valid application of matched pair procedures, including the paired t-test and McNemar's chi-2 test for correlated proportions. Examples are given involving data arising from: (1) the comparison of pre- and post-treatment clinical measurements; (ii) split-mouth protocols.
