An alternative possibility to -roccomp- is to use the -senspec- package, downloadable from SSC, to calcutate sensitivities and specificities, which can then be graphed using the -graph twoway- command. And the ROC curves can be compared using the -somersd- package, also downloadable from SSC to calculate the ROC areas (using the option -transf(c)-), together with -lincom-, which calculates confidence intervals (as well as P-values) for differences between 2 ROC areas.

The statistical issues involved in comparing multiple ROC areas for multiple fitted models are discussed in Newson (2010).

I hope this helps.

Best wishes

Roger

Dear list

Is there a package that allows you to place multiple ROC curves (based on
multiple logistic regression models) on a singlegraph?

Thanks in advance

Barth
