An adaptation of pseudo-score confidence interval method for linear mixed models

Abstract

We adapt a confidence interval method based on a generalized Chi-Square test for fixed effect parameters of linear mixed models. Under different correlation structure of a response variable of a linear mixed model, the performances of the adaptation method pseudo-score and some of the existing confidence interval methods are investigated by carrying out a Monte Carlo simulation study. The simulation study suggests that pseudo-score method provides better results for small to moderate sample size cases with dependent observations in terms of coverage probability rates and average expected lengths. A depression study is analyzed for demonstrating the adaptation method.
