Monte Carlo Comparison of Variance Components Estimators [PDF]
For the one-way classification random model with unbalanced data, I compare five estimators of σ 2/a and σ 2/e the among and within-treatments variance components: Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), Minimum Norm Quadratic Unbiased Estimators (MINQUE) and the ...

Assessing the utility of a novel entrustment‐supervision assessment tool
Abstract Background Work‐based assessments (WBAs) are increasingly used to inform decisions about trainee progression. Unfortunately, WBAs often fail to discriminate between trainees of differing abilities and have poor reliability. Entrustment‐supervision scales may improve WBA performance, but there is a paucity of literature directly comparing them ...

Estimation Procedures in Linear Mixed Effects Models for Repeated Measures Data [PDF]
The purpose of this paper is to derive estimation procedures; namely Maximum Likelihood (ML), Residual Maximum Likelihood (RML) and Minimum Norm Quadratic Unbiased estimates (MINQUE), for estimating the parameters and variance components in linear models

Nonlinear total least-squares variance component estimation for GM(1,1) model
The solution of the grey model (GM(1,1) model) generally involves equal-precision observations, and the (co)variance matrix is established from the prior information.

On Interclass and Intraclass Correlations of Familial Data with Application on Hemoglobin Level from EDHS 2000 Familial Data [PDF]
In the analysis of familial data, the primary aim is to estimate the degree of resemblance between family members. Here we are interested in the special case where one group of family members consists of one individual, as typified in the following ...

The nonnegative MINQUE estimate
The purpose of this paper is to give a characterization of the nonnegative MINQUE estimate for variance components. A similar characterization has been given by \textit{F. Pukelsheim} [Math. Operationsforsch. Stat., Ser. Stat. 12, 271-286 (1981; Zbl 0488.62051)] but only in some special cases.
