A Monte Carlo simulation study comparing linear regression, beta regression, variable-dispersion beta regression and fractional logit regression at recovering average difference measures in a two sample design

BACKGROUND In biomedical research, response variables are often encountered which have bounded support on the open unit interval--(0,1). Traditionally, researchers have attempted to estimate covariate effects on these types of response data using linear regression. Alternative modelling strategies may include: beta regression, variable-dispersion beta regression, and fractional logit regression...

Erratum to: A Monte Carlo simulation study comparing linear regression, beta regression, variable-dispersion beta regression and fractional logit regression at recovering average difference measures in a two sample design

Erratum After publication of the original article [1], the authors noticed an error in Fig. 1. The legend included in the original sub-plot of Fig. 1 was labelled “phi = 500 (p = 25, q = 475)”; however, the figure title suggested phi = 1000. An updated version of Fig. 1 is published in this erratum, where the legend has been updated to “phi = 1000 (p = 50, q = 950)” to be consistent with the fi...

Comparing Regression, PLS, and LISREL Using a Monte Carlo Simulation

This study uses Monte Carlo simulation to compare three relatively popular techniques, with findings that run counter to extant suggestions in MIS literature. We compare multiple regression, Partial Least Squares and LISREL under varying sample sizes (N = 40, 90, 150, and 200) and varying effect sizes (large, medium, small and no effect). The focus of the analysis was on determining how frequen...

Some Modifications to Calculate Regression Coefficients in Multiple Linear Regression

In a multiple linear regression model, there are instances where one has to update the regression parameters. In such models as new data become available, by adding one row to the design matrix, the least-squares estimates for the parameters must be updated to reflect the impact of the new data. We will modify two existing methods of calculating regression coefficients in multiple linear regres...
