Table 2 Spatial dependence tests between the original variables and spatial lag as the second variables, which were calculated using global bivariate Moran’s I analysis in Taiwan during 2009–2011
From: Role of Aedes aegypti (Linnaeus) and Aedes albopictus (Skuse) in local dengue epidemics in Taiwan
Original variable | Spatial lag (second variable) | Bivariate Moran’s I | Pseudo p-value | Spatial dependence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Aedes albopictus (Breteau Index) | Imported dengue incidence rate | −0.07 | 0.0019 | Negative |
Aedes aegypti (Breteau Index) | Imported dengue incidence rate | 0.03 | 0.0985 | No correlation |
Aedes albopictus (Breteau Index) | Autochthonous dengue incidence rate | 0.06 | 0.0122 | Positive |
Aedes aegypti (Breteau Index) | Autochthonous dengue incidence rate | 0.51 | 0.0001 | Positive |
Aedes albopictus (Breteau Index) | Dengue fever incidence rate | 0.06 | 0.0139 | Positive |
Aedes aegypti (Breteau Index) | Dengue fever incidence rate | 0.51 | 0.0001 | Positive |
Human population density | Aedes albopictus (Breteau Index) | −0.12 | 0.0001 | Negative |
Human population density | Aedes aegypti (Breteau Index) | 0.21 | 0.0001 | Positive |
