Fixed or random? On the reliability of mixed‐effects models for a small number of levels in grouping variables [PDF]
Biological data are often intrinsically hierarchical (e.g., species from different genera, plants within different mountain regions), which made mixed‐effects models a common analysis tool in ecology and evolution because they can account for the non ...

Understanding Mixed-Effects Models Through Data Simulation
Experimental designs that sample both subjects and stimuli from a larger population need to account for random effects of both subjects and stimuli using mixed-effects models.

Fiducial Inference in Linear Mixed-Effects Models [PDF]
We develop a novel framework for fiducial inference in linear mixed-effects (LME) models, with the standard deviation of random effects reformulated as coefficients.

Practical identifiability in the frame of nonlinear mixed effects models: the example of the in vitro erythropoiesis [PDF]
Background Nonlinear mixed effects models provide a way to mathematically describe experimental data involving a lot of inter-individual heterogeneity.

Mixed effects regression models in forestry research [PDF]
A promising method for finding patterns in experimental data is regression models of mixed effects, which have not found wide application in forest science in Russia to date.

Background: Obesity results from a chronic imbalance between energy intake and energy expenditure. Total energy expenditure for all physiological functions combined can be measured approximately by calorimeters.

Invited review: Recursive models in animal breeding: Interpretation, limitations, and extensions
: Structural equation models allow causal effects between 2 or more variables to be considered and can postulate unidirectional (recursive models; RM) or bidirectional (simultaneous models) causality between variables.

Biological and statistical interpretation of size-at-age, mixed-effects models of growth [PDF]
The differences in life-history traits and processes between organisms living in the same or different populations contribute to their ecological and evolutionary dynamics.
