Measuring treatment and scale bias effects by linear regression in the analysis of OHI-S scores.
A linear regression model is presented for estimating unbiased treatment effects from OHI-S scores. An example is given to illustrate an analysis and to compare results of an unbiased regression estimator with those based on a biased simple difference estimator.
