Testing polynomial covariate effects in linear and generalized linear mixed models.
An important feature of linear mixed models and generalized linear mixed models is that the conditional mean of the response given the random effects, after transformed by a link function, is linearly related to the fixed covariate effects and random effects. Therefore, it is of practical importance to test the adequacy of this assumption, particularly the assumption of linear covariate effects...
متن کاملCovariate-Adjusted Generalized Linear Models
We propose covariate adjustment methodology for a situation where one wishes to study the dependency of a generalized response on predictors while both predictors and response are distorted by an observable covariate. The distorting covariate is thought of as a size measurement that affects predictors in a multiplicative fashion. The generalized response is modeled by means of a random threshol...
متن کاملRandom Effects in Generalized Linear Mixed Models
In this chapter, we examine the use of special forms of correlated random e ects in the generalized linear mixed model (GLMM) setting. A special feature of our GLMM is the inclusion of random residual e ects to account for lack of t due to extra variation, outliers and other unexplained sources of variation. For random e ects, we consider, in particular, the correlation structure and improper p...
متن کاملBayesian Inference for Spatial Beta Generalized Linear Mixed Models
In some applications, the response variable assumes values in the unit interval. The standard linear regression model is not appropriate for modelling this type of data because the normality assumption is not met. Alternatively, the beta regression model has been introduced to analyze such observations. A beta distribution represents a flexible density family on (0, 1) interval that covers symm...
متن کاملGeneralized Linear Mixed Models
Generalized linear models (GLMs) represent a class of fixed effects regression models for several types of dependent variables (i.e., continuous, dichotomous, counts). McCullagh and Nelder [32] describe these in great detail and indicate that the term ‘generalized linear model’ is due to Nelder and Wedderburn [35] who described how a collection of seemingly disparate statistical techniques coul...
