Variance Component Models with Binary Response: Interviewer Variability
研究了二元响应中访员变异的方差成分估计问题,推导了最大似然估计方法,并用于分析大型问卷中的二元项目,探讨了非平衡方差分析方法的适用性。
SUMMARY Interviewer variability in a binary response is an example of a problem requiring variance component estimation in a non-normal family. The maximum likelihood estimation procedure is derived and used to examine some binary items on a large questionnaire. This raises some interesting questions about the use of unbalanced ANOVA methods with these data.
