Confidence factors-method for estimating the confidence limits of standardized population rate of indirect method

The standardized rate of indirect method is widely used, but no method of interval estimation for its population rate has been reported. The authors have discussed the standard error of standardized rate of indirect method and suggested that a method using this standard error should be used to determine the confidence limits for the population rate. In this paper, the authors put forward another method (Confidence Factors-Method) which can be easily applied to determine the confidence limits. It gives approximately the same result with the method mentioned above.
