[Results and experiences with automatic data processing of caries epidemiological data]. 1977

I Voigt, and G Hetzer

The authors report of further results from and experience with the automated processing of caries-epidemiological data by means of the R 300 computer. The extension of result documentation to qualitative characteristics of caries incidence in the framework of scientific problems is described and critically evaluated, taking a caries-protective collective action for an example.
