• Trends in Intergenerational Class Mobility in Modern Britain: Evidence From National Surveys, 1972—2005 (2008, background): “22 The confidence intervals surrounding the point estimates in figures 7, 8 and 9 are approximations based on so called ‘quasivariances’ (Firth, 2003; Firth and De Menezes, 2004) and therefore allow valid comparisons between arbitrary pairs of contrasts.”
• Waist circumference and waist-to-hip ratio as predictors of cardiovascular events: meta-regression analysis of prospective studies. (2007, methodology): “The sum of two quasi-variances is approximately equal to the variance of a comparison of the two levels.(22) We used the web-based QV-calculator to derive quasi-variances from variances in log RR for categories of WC and WHR and estimates of their covariances.”
