Restricted Spatial Regression Methods: Implications for Inference
受限空间回归方法对统计推断的影响
The issue of spatial confounding between the spatial random effect and the fixed effects in regression analyses has been identified as a concern in the statistical literature. Multiple authors have offered perspectives and potential solutions. In this paper, for the areal spatial data setting, we show that many of the methods designed to alleviate spatial confounding can be viewed as special cases of a general class of models. We refer to this class as Restricted Spatial…
