چکیده
In this paper we derive asymptotic tests for general linear hypotheses on variance components using repeated variance components models In two examples the two way nested classi cation model and the two way crossed classi cation model with interaction we explicitly investigate the properties of the asymptotic tests in small sample sizes

Estimation of Variance Components for Body Weight of Moghani Sheep Using B-Spline Random Regression Models
The aim of the present study was the estimation of (co) variance components and genetic parameters for body weight of Moghani sheep, using random regression models based on B-Splines functions. The data set included 9165 body weight records from 60 to 360 days of age from 2811 Moghani sheep, collected between 1994 to 2013 from Jafar-Abad Animal Research and Breeding Institute, Ardabil province,...
متن کاملTesting linear forms of variance components bygeneralized xed { level
This report extends the technique of testing single variance components with generalized xed{level tests | in situations when nuisance parameters make exact testing impossible | to the more general way of testing hypotheses on linear forms of variance components. An extension of the deenition of a generalized test variable leads to a generalized xed{level test for arbitrary linear hypotheses on...
متن کاملFlexible results for quadratic forms with applications to variance components estimation
Abstract: We derive convenient uniform concentration bounds and finite sample multivariate normal approximation results for quadratic forms, then describe some applications involving variance components estimation in linear random-effects models. Random-effects models and variance components estimation are classical topics in statistics, with a corresponding well-established asymptotic theory. ...
متن کاملLikelihood ratio tests in linear mixed models with one variance component
We consider the problem of testing null hypotheses that include restrictions on the variance component in a linear mixed model with one variance component. We derive the finite sample and asymptotic distribution of the likelihood ratio test (LRT) and the restricted likelihood ratio test (RLRT). The spectral representations of the LRT and RLRT statistics are used as the basis of an efficient sim...
