โฆ Synopsis
In this paper we consider the problem of selecting the covariables within individuals in the growth curve model. We propose two modifications of AIC and MIC (Cp-static), which have improvements on the bias properties. Asymptotic distributions of variable slection criteria are derived under a general situation where a polynomial growth curve of degree j 0 is approximately suitable. A simulation study is also given to gain some understanding on the small sample properties of these variable selection criteria 1997 Academic Press

## Abstract Variable selection is growing in importance with the advent of high throughput genotyping methods requiring analysis of hundreds to thousands of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and the increased interest in using these genetic studies to better understand common, complex diseases
