Estimation And Hypothesis Testing In Lav Regression With Autocorrelated Errors: Is Correction For Autocorrelation Helpful?, Terry E. Dielman
Estimation And Hypothesis Testing In Lav Regression With Autocorrelated Errors: Is Correction For Autocorrelation Helpful?, Terry E. Dielman
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
Using the Prais-Winsten correction and adding a lagged variable provides improved estimates (smaller MSE) in least absolute value (LAV) regression when moderate to high levels of autocorrelation are present. When comparing empirical levels of significance for hypothesis tests, adding a lagged variable outperforms other approaches but has a relative high empirical level of significance.

Evaluating educational programs is a core component of assessment. One challenge occurs because participants often enter into programs with diverse skills and backgrounds. The regression-discontinuity design has been used to evaluate programs amongst a diverse group, but noncompliance is a limitation. A simulation analysis illustrates the impact of noncompliance.

Factors Influencing The Mixture Index Of Model Fit In Contingency Tables Showing Independence, Xuemei Pan, C. Mitchell Dayton
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
Several competing computational techniques for dealing with sampling zeros were evaluated when estimating the two-point mixture model index, π* , in contingency tables under an independence assumption. Also, the performance of the estimate and associated standard errors were studied under various combinations of conditions.
