摘要

Crash data have often been shown to exhibit over-dispersion, which means that the samplevariance is greater than the sample mean. On rare occasions, this kind of data has been found tobe characterized by under-dispersion. In order to handle under-dispersion, researchers in variousfields have proposed alternative distributions or models. Of all the available distributions thathave been proposed in the literature, two distributions that can handle both over- and underdispersionare of interest: the Conway-Maxwell-Poisson (COM-Poisson) and the Double-Poisson(DP) distributions. The properties of the COM-Poisson have been investigated extensively byvarious researchers but not for the DP, although the latter one has been introduced over 25 yearsago. The primary objective of this paper was to examine the potential applicability of the DPdistribution for analyzing crash data characterized by both over- and under-dispersion. The studyobjective was accomplished using simulated data for nine different mean-dispersion relationships(or scenarios). The DP distribution was compared with the COM-Poisson distribution. Thesimulation results showed that the COM-Poisson performed better than DP for all nine scenariosand that DP worked better for high mean scenarios independent of the type of dispersion.Overall, since the differences observed in statistical fit between the two distributions is moreimportant for under-dispersed datasets, there may not be any need to forgo the COM-Poisson forthe DP for analyzing datasets characterized by under-dispersion.
