Table 1.
Mean relative bias of growth rate r1 (and standard deviation) given δr = r1 − r2 bins, where r1 is the growth rate prior to the joinpoint, and r2 is the growth rate following the joinpoint, by scenario. Scenario 1–3 indicate analysis assuming no joinpoint, using the estimated joinpoint, or using the true joinpoint, respectively.
| Bin | Scenario 1 | Scenario 2 | Scenario 3 |
|---|---|---|---|
| δr ∈ [0.00,0.20] | −13.73 (0.46) | 2.28 (0.99) | 27.36 (0.43) |
| δr ∈ (0.20,0.45] | −33.80 (0.49) | −4.96 (0.69) | 18.06 (0.33) |
| δr ∈ (0.45,0.70] | −51.68 (0.89) | −13.11 (0.79) | 4.75 (0.25) |
