Misspecification in Mixed-Model-Based Association Analysis.
Additive genetic variance in natural populations is commonly estimated using mixed models, in which the covariance of the genetic effects is modeled by a genetic similarity matrix derived from a dense set of markers. An important but usually implicit assumption is that the presence of any nonadditive genetic effect increases only the residual variance and does not affect estimates of additive g...
متن کاملModel Misspecification in Peaks over Threshold Analysis
Classical peaks over threshold analysis is widely used for statistical modeling of sample extremes, and can be supplemented by a model for the sizes of clusters of exceedances. Under mild conditions a compound Poisson process model allows the estimation of the marginal distribution of threshold exceedances and of the mean cluster size, but requires the choice of a threshold and of a run paramet...
متن کاملImpact of Serial Correlation Misspecification with the Linear Mixed Model
Linear mixed models are popular models for use with clustered and longitudinal data due to their ability to model variation at different levels of clustering. A Monte Carlo study was used to explore the impact of assumption violations on the bias of parameter estimates and the empirical type I error rates. Simulated conditions included in this study are: simulated serial correlation structure, ...

متن کاملThe use of imputed sibling genotypes in sibship-based association analysis: on modeling alternatives, power and model misspecification.
When phenotypic, but no genotypic data are available for relatives of participants in genetic association studies, previous research has shown that family-based imputed genotypes can boost the statistical power when included in such studies. Here, using simulations, we compared the performance of two statistical approaches suitable to model imputed genotype data: the mixture approach, which inv...
