Estimation of Count Data using Bivariate Negative Binomial Regression Models
Abstract Negative binomial regression model (NBR) is a popular approach for modeling overdispersed count data with covariates. Several parameterizations have been performed for NBR, and the two well-known models, negative binomial-1 regression model (NBR-1) and negative binomial-2 regression model (NBR-2), have been applied. Another parameterization of NBR is negative binomial-P regression mode...
متن کاملFixed-effects Negative Binomial Regression Models
This paper demonstrates that the conditional negative binomial model for panel data, proposed by Hausman, Hall and Griliches (1984), is not a true fixed-effects method. This method—which has been implemented in both Stata and LIMDEP—does not, in fact, control for all stable covariates. Three alternative methods are explored. A negative multinomial model yields the same estimator as the conditio...
متن کاملPublic Health and Levels of Nicotine: Should Nicotine Levels in Cigarettes Be Minimized or Maximized?
In the early 1970s, it was already evident that nicotine dependence was the major factor underlying the maintenance of smoking (1); it was also clear that smokers unconsciously regulate their nicotine intake by reducing puff rate when smoking a high-nicotine cigarette and by increasing it to compensate for the drop in yield when smoking a low-nicotine cigarette (2-5). Confirmation of this self-...
متن کاملOn the bivariate negative binomial regression model
In this paper, a new bivariate negative binomial regression (BNBR) model allowing any type of correlation is defined and studied. The marginal means of the bivariate model are functions of the explanatory variables. The parameters of the bivariate regression model are estimated by using the maximum likelihood method. Some test statistics including goodness-of-fit are discussed. Two numerical da...
متن کاملNegative binomial and mixed Poisson regression
A number of methods have been proposed for dealing with extra-Poisson variation when doing regression analysis of count data. This paper studies negative-binomial regression models and examines efficiency and robustness properties of inference procedures based on them. The methods are compared with quasilikelihood methods. RESUME Plusieurs mkthodes ont ktk propokes en vue de traiter le probltme...
