The dose–response model concerns to establish a relationship between a dose and the magnitude of the response produced by the dose. A common complication in the dose–response model for jejunal crypts cell surviving data is overdispersion, where the observed variation exceeds that predicted from the binomial distribution. In this study, two different methods for analyzing jejunal crypts cell survival after regimens of several fractions are contrasted and compared. One method is the logistic regression approach, where the numbers of surviving crypts are predicted by the logistic function of a single dose of radiation. The other one is the transform-both-sides approach, where the arcsine transformation family is applied based on the first-order variance–stabilizing transformation. This family includes the square root, arcsine, and hyperbolic arcsine transformations, which have been used for Poisson, binomial, and negative binomial count data, as special cases. These approaches are applied to a data set from radiobiology. Simulation study indicates that the arcsine transformation family is more efficient than the logistic regression when there exists moderate overdispersion.
