Maximum likelihood estimation of generalized linear models with covariate measurement error
Rabe-Hesketh, Sophia; Skrondal, Anders; Pickles, Andrew - 2003
Generalized linear models with covariate measurement error can be estimated by maximum likelihood using gllamm, a … “wrapper” command, cme, that calls gllamm to estimate the model. The wrapper makes life easy for the user by accepting a simple … running gllamm can also be obtained from cme. We first discuss the case where several measurements are available and …

High-dimensional maximum marginal likelihood item factor analysis by adaptive quadrature
Bock, R. Darrell.; Schilling, Stephen - 2005
Although the Bock–Aitkin likelihood-based estimation method for factor analysis of dichotomous item response data has important advantages over classical analysis of item tetrachoric correlations, a serious limitation of the method is its reliance on fixed-point Gauss-Hermite (G-H) quadrature...

Likelihood-based estimation of the regression model with scrambled responses
Strachan, R; King, M; Singh, S - 1998
A significant problem in the collection of responses to potentially sensitive questions, such as relating to illegal, immoral or embarrassing activities, is non-sampling error due to refusal to respond or false responses. Eichhorn & Hayre (1983) suggested the use of scrambled responses to reduce...

Interracial Marriage in the U.S. in 2006
Poston, Dudley L. (contributor) - 2009
Rates of black-white intermarriage in the United States have increased over the last sixty years, yet they remain at levels below other types of interracial/interethnic unions. Prior research has centered largely on individual-level factors associated with the formation of such unions,...

An empirical analysis of current account data
Christian Aßmann - 2009
This thesis analyzes certain aspects of the current account balance and its relationship to economic growth. Employing recently developed statistical and econometric techniques for estimation of non linear models, crises phenomena connected to the balance of payments are focused. The analysis of...

Multiple regression applications to capital structure modeling for life insurers
Sager, Thomas W. (contributor) - 2009
Like any other company, life insurance companies maintain a combination of debt and equity for their long-term financing, which forms their capital structure. Many theories have been developed in the literature to focus upon the determinants that are likely to affect leverage decisions of the...
