This paper deals with the estimation and the test for linearity of models belonging to a class of additive nonlinear ones. We prove the joint asymptotic normality for a kernel estimator and provide a test for linearity of each function defining the model.
The relationship between marginal (population-averaged) models for cluster-correlated binary data, and a class of cluster-speciΓΏc, logistic-normal random e ects models is discussed. We show that random e ects models can accomplish the same end as a more direct modelling of intra-cluster correlation,
Three reasons for why people may evaluate utility in a rank-dependent fashion have been suggested: (a) rank-dependent weighting is a function of perceptual biases and thus not prescriptively defensible; (b) weights are (re)distributed by motivational processes that reflect stable personality charact
