The Effects of Mixture Distribution Misspecification when Fitting Mixed-Effects Logistic Models
混合分布误设对混合效应 Logistic 模型拟合的影响
Mixed-effects logistic models are often used to analyze binary response data which have been gathered in clusters, or groups. Responses are assumed to follow a logistic model with in clusters, with an intercept which varies across clusters according to a specified probability distribution G. In this paper we examine the performance of mixed-effects logistic regression analysis when a main component of the model, the mixture distribution, is misspecified. We show that, when…
