Hi guys,
I am using proc stdrate/direct method to make a simple adjustment age/sexe of my study population.
I wish to have a better understanding of either the formula or the conceptual procedure used by SAS to calculate the Standard Error displayed by-default in the Output; Is it possible to either change/add/or replace this information for example by the standard deviation or the variance ?
Where could I obtain more details about these statistics (applied by SAS) ... the details are scarce in my opinion, or I am not looking at the right place.
Thanks you so much for your help.
Thank you so much.
I'll verify all that again.
Have a great day !
Sorry for coming back.
Using a PROC UNIVARIATE,, the Standard deviation in the Output is indeed the square root of the variance,
but using a PROC STDRATE (to calculate an adjusted rate/adjusted proportion), the Standard Error is the equivalent of the Standard deviation (but in this case applied to a proportion) ?
... thanks in advance for your support.

ANOVA, or Analysis Of Variance, is used to compare the averages or means of two or more populations to better understand how they differ. Watch this tutorial for more.
