Mixed Model Influence Diagnostics
نویسنده
چکیده
Linear models for uncorrelated data have well established measures to gauge the influence of one or more observations on the analysis. For such models, closed-form update expressions allow efficient computations without refitting the model. When similar notions of statistical influence are applied to mixed models, things are more complicated. Removing data points affects fixed effects and covariance parameter estimates. Update formulas for “leave-one-out” estimates typically fail to account for changes in covariance parameters. Moreover, in repeated measures or longitudinal studies, one is often interested in multivariate influence, rather than the impact of isolated points. This paper examines extensions of influence measures in linear mixed models and their implementation in the MIXED procedure.

Influence Diagnostics for Linear Mixed Models
Linear mixed models are extremely sensitive to outlying responses and extreme points in the fixed and random effect design spaces. Few diagnostics are available in standard computing packages. We provide routine diagnostic tools, which are computationally inexpensive. The diagnostics are functions of basic building blocks: studentized residuals, error contrast matrix, and the inverse of the res...

متن کاملDiagnostic measures for linear mixed measurement error models
In this paper, we present case deletion and mean shift outlier models for linear mixed measurement error models using the corrected likelihood of Nakamura (1990). We derive the corrected score test statistic for outliers detection based on mean shift outlier models. Furthermore, several case deletion diagnostics are constructed as a tool for influence diagnostics. It is found that they can be w...
متن کاملInfluence Diagnostics for Correlated Data
Correlated or clustered data are frequently encountered in medical and dental research. Although there has been a large amount of research on analytic methods for clustered data, there has been only a limited amount of work in the area of influence diagnostics for these methods. We present a simple approach to influence diagnostics for clustered data that is practical even for very large data s...
متن کاملA note on influence diagnostics in nonlinear mixed-effects elliptical models
This paper concisely provides general matrix formulas for computing the score function, the (expected and observed) Fisher information and the ∆ matrices (required for the assessment of local influence) for a quite general mixed model which includes the one proposed by Russo et al. (2009). Additionally, we also present an expression for the generalized leverage. The general expressions derived ...
