Inferences for the Extremum of Quadratic Regression Models
Quadratic functions are often used in regression to infer the existence of an extremum in a relationship although tests of the location of the extremum are rarely performed. We investigate the construction of the following confidence intervals: Delta, Fieller, estimated first derivative, bootstrapping, Bayesian and likelihood ratio. We propose interpretations for the unbounded intervals that ma...
متن کاملImproved Estimation for Robust Econometric Regression Models
The t distribution has proved to be a useful alternative to the normal distribution in many econometric regression models, especially when robust estimation is desired. In this work, we consider a nonlinear heteroskedastic Student t regression model. We suppose the observations to be independently t distributed, with the location and scale parameters for each observation being related to linear...
متن کاملSpatial Regression Models for Areal Data Analysis
The primary models of interest for areal data analysis are regression models. In the same way that geo-regression models were used to study relations among continuous-data attributes of selected point locations (such as the California rainfall example), the present spatial regression models are designed to study relations among attributes of areal units (such as the English Mortality example in...
متن کاملInferences in Censored Cost Regression Models with Empirical Likelihood
In many studies of health economics, we are interested in the expected total cost over a certain period for a patient with given characteristics. Problems can arise if cost estimation models do not account for distributional aspects of costs. Two such problems are (1) the skewed nature of the data, and (2) censored observations. In this paper we propose an empirical likelihood (EL) method for c...
متن کاملUsing Bootstrapped Confidence Intervals for Improved Inferences with Seemingly Unrelated Regression Equations
The usual standard errors for the regression coe cients in a Seemingly Unrelated Regression model have a substantial downward bias. Bootstrapping the standard errors does not seem to improve inferences. In this paper Monte Carlo evidence is reported which indicates that bootstrapping can result in substantially better inferences when applied to t-ratios rather than to standard errors. 3
