Uzunlamasına kısmi-sürekli veri için marjinalleştirilmiş çok seviyeli rastgele etkili bir model

Öz

Bu çalışmada, uzunlamasına kısmi-sürekli veri için marjinalleştirilmiş çok seviyeli rastgele etkili bir model önerdik. Önerilen yöntemin başarısını farklı senaryolar altında bir Monte Carlo benzetim çalışmasıyla inceledik. Benzetim çalışmasının sonuçları önerilen modelin yeterli istatistiksel özelliklere sahip olduğunu göstermiştir.

A marginalized multilevel random effects model for longitudinal semi-continuous data

Öz

In this study, we proposed a marginalized multilevel random effects model for analysis of longitudinal semi-continuous data. We investigated the performance of the proposed model through a Monte Carlo simulation study under scenarios. The results of the simulation study showed that the proposed model has some favourable statistical properties.
