โœฆ Synopsis


In this paper we propose test statistics for a general hypothesis concerning the adequacy of multivariate random-effects covariance structures in a multivariate growth curve model with differing numbers of random effects (Lange, N., N.M. Laird, J. Amer. Statist. Assoc. 84 (198!)1 241 247). Since the exact likelihood ratio {LR) statistic for the hypothesis is complicated, it ~s suggested to use a modified LR statistic. An asymptotic expansion of the null distribution of the statistic is obtained. The exact LR statistic is also discussed. ,(: 1997 Elsevier Science B.V.

This paper is concerned with an extended growth curve model with two withinindividual design matrices which are hierarchically related. For the model some random-coefficient covariance structures are reduced. LR tests for testing the adequacy of each of these random-coefficient structures and their
