Analyzing spatial aggregation error in statistical models of late-stage cancer risk: a Monte Carlo simulation approach

PURPOSE: This paper examines the effect of spatial aggregation error on statistical estimates of the association between spatial access to health care and late-stage cancer. METHODS: Monte Carlo simulation was used to disaggregate cancer cases for two Illinois counties from zip code to census block...
