P(A given B')=[P(A)-P(AnB)]/[1-P(B)].In words: Probability of A given B compliment is equal to the Probability of A minus the Probability of A intersect B, divided by 1 minus the probability of B.
The complement (not compliment) of the probability of event A is 1 minus the probability of A: that is, it is the probability of A not happening or "not-A" happening.The complement (not compliment) of the probability of event A is 1 minus the probability of A: that is, it is the probability of A not happening or "not-A" happening.The complement (not compliment) of the probability of event A is 1 minus the probability of A: that is, it is the probability of A not happening or "not-A" happening.The complement (not compliment) of the probability of event A is 1 minus the probability of A: that is, it is the probability of A not happening or "not-A" happening.
Prob(A given B) = Prob(A and B)/Prob(B)
The probability of event A occurring given event B has occurred is an example of conditional probability.
With probability ratios the value you get to describe the strength of the relationship when you compare (A given B) to (A given not B) is not the same as what you get when you compare (not A given B) to (not A given not B). This is, IMHO, a big problem. There is no such problem with odds ratios.
