✦ Synopsis


described how the empirical semi-variogram of ordinary least squares residuals can be used to suggest an appropriate serial correlation structure in stationary linear mixed models. In this paper, this approach is extended to non-stationary models which include random effects other than intercepts, and will be applied to prostate cancer data, taken from the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging. A simulation study demonstrates the effectiveness of this extended variogram for improving the covariance structure of the linear mixed model used to describe the prostate data.

## Abstract The analysis‐of‐variance tests for hypotheses on random effects in regular linear models are considered. Conditions are given for these tests to be uniformly most powerful unbiased or uniformly most powerful invariant unbiased. An example shows that the difference between these conditio

Current age-specific reference standards for adult hearing thresholds are primarily cross-sectional in nature and vary in the degree of screening of the reference sample for noise-induced hearing loss and other hearing problems. We develop methods to construct age-specific percentiles for longitudin
