U-tests for variance components in linear mixed models
We propose U -statistics-based tests for null variance components in linear mixed models. We obtain their asymptotic distribution (for increasing number of units) under mild regularity conditions that include only the existence of the second moment for the distribution of the random effects and of the fourth moment for the distribution of the conditional errors. We also derive their nonnull dis...
متن کاملTesting multiple variance components in linear mixed-effects models.
Testing zero variance components is one of the most challenging problems in the context of linear mixed-effects (LME) models. The usual asymptotic chi-square distribution of the likelihood ratio and score statistics under this null hypothesis is incorrect because the null is on the boundary of the parameter space. During the last two decades many tests have been proposed to overcome this diffic...
متن کاملTests for Variance Components in Varying Coefficient Mixed Models
We consider a general class of varying coefficient mixed models where random effects are introduced to account for between-subject variation. To address the question of whether a varying coefficient mixed model can be reduced to a simpler varying coefficient model, we develop one-sided tests for the null hypothesis that all the variance components are zero. In addition to the purely null-based ...
متن کاملA Note on Bootstrap Tests for Variance Components in Generalized Linear Mixed Models
In many applications of generalized linear mixed models to clustered correlated or longitudinal data, often we are interested in testing whether a random effects variance component is zero. The usual asymptotic mixture of chi-square distributions of the score statistic for testing constrained variance components does not necessarily hold. In this paper, we propose and explore a parametric boots...
متن کاملAn Estimation of Variance Components in Linear Mixed Model
In this paper, a linear mixed model which has two random effects is broken up into two models. This thesis gets the parameter estimation of the original model and an estimation’s statistical qualities based on these two models. Then many important properties are given by comparing this estimation with other general estimations. At the same time, this paper proves the analysis of variance estima...
