We explore the effects of measurement error in a time-varying covariate for a mixed model applied to a longitudinal study of plasma levels and dietary intake of beta-carotene. We derive a simple expression for the bias of large sample estimates of the variance of random effects in a longitudinal mod
When combining results from separate investigations in a meta-analysis, random effects methods enable the modelling of differences between studies by incorporating a heterogeneity parameter that accounts explicitly for across-study variation. We develop a simple form for the variance of Cochran's ho
Statistical methodology is presented for the statistical analysis of non-linear measurement error models. Our approach is to provide adjustments for the usual maximum likelihood estimators, their standard errors and associated significance tests in order to account for the presence of measurement er
The selection of smoothing parameters by generalized cross-validation (GCV) becomes complicated when dealing with correlated data. In this paper, we develop an automatic algorithm for selection of smoothing parameters in non-parametric longitudinal models by combining the BRUTO algorithm of Hastie (
Assessment of quality of life is becoming standard in clinical trials. A popular method for measuring quality of life is with instruments which utilize multiple-item subscales, in which each item is scored on a Likert scale. Most statistical methods for the analysis of quality of life data in clinic
