What’s New in SAS/STAT 14.3

Highlights of Enhancements

Following are some highlights of the enhancements in SAS/STAT 14.3:

  • The GAMPL procedure now supports the Tweedie distribution.

  • In PROC FREQ, the COMMONRISKDIFF option in the TABLES statement provides estimates, confidence limits, and tests for the overall risk (proportion) difference for multiway tables.

  • The IRT procedure now supports the nominal response model, which enables you to do item analysis of nominal responses.

  • The NLMIXED and MCMC procedures add a CMPTMODEL statement that fits compartment models in pharmacokinetic analysis.

  • The PHREG procedure provides the cause-specific proportional hazards analysis for competing-risks data.

  • The QUANTREG and QUANTSELECT procedures provide fast quantile process regression.

  • The VARMETHOD=BOOTSTRAP option provides variance estimation by the bootstrap method for the survey data analysis procedures.

  • The TTEST procedure provides bootstrap standard error, bias estimates, and confidence limits.
